Can someone explain the OP's problem ?
It sounds like it is being said that oconv(1,"MD1") / iconv(1,"MD1") cause some 
sort of problem on universe ?

however, on UV 10.0.10 :
        crt oconv(1,"MD1")
        crt iconv(1,"MD1")

generates the expected ( at least to me ) output :
        0.1
        10

Check out the Administering Universe Manual for the use of Flavors if you 
want to use the conversion in dictionaries.  Note: this changes the default 
ways TCL, PROC, & BASIC are intrepreted.  It is a major change in an 
existing account that can get you into lots of trouble.  Only use flavors 
when loading accounts from a foreign (non-Universe) source.

Note: If you want to use this conversion code only in a BASIC program, 
check out the $OPTIONS statement in BASIC to set only that program to 
Reality Flavor.  Note: there is very little documentation about how 
commands at TCL or BASIC work in REALITY flavor, especially 
conversions.  You will need a REALITY manual to determine the syntax to 
use, but test everything carefully.  You can get very unexpected results 
when you mix flavors.
