Comment #11 on issue 436 by omattos: Numeric results are wrong on some systems due to x87 extended double precision
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=436
This is causing me issues for my application, because it takes known input data, does calculations on it, and MD5's the result. The MD5 produced is different on different machines. This issue certainly does crop up in the real world.
One solution for me is to use an arbitrary precision javascript Math library to simulate the correct behaviour, but that isn't great for performance reasons. Are there any other solutions on the horizon?
