Yesterday I mentioned on the list that the current Vim code will do what you observed. I used the more modest value of 0.3111222333 to illustrate the issue. The current Vim code evaluates the integer and fractional components as separate integers. On a 32-bit machine, you only need 9 or 10 digits to overflow. A few hours ago I added that I think the standard C library routine strtod() should be used to avoid these kind of issues (with the defect that some systems won't have a functioning strtod()).
