<pre>This is not a bug, but the result of non-representability of some numbers in
computer [1]. Using computer-aided computations, user must be prepared for such
things, unfortunately because they are simply unavoidable. It's normal than
changing the order of calculations, you get different intermediate results,
which may happen to be representable in IEEE 754 form, or may simply happen to
be represented closer to ideal values.
