Package: pi
Version: 1.1.9-1
Severity: minor

Whilst messing with my new AMD64 I tried:
pi 1000000000
and left it going over the weekend.
Unfortunately when I came back, pi had failed with a floating point
overflow.

(With such a huge request the virtual address space was >20Gbytes
But is that not what 64bits processors are for?)
