{quote}The floating-point issues are as well all non-issues, actually.
{quote}
Actually, they are mostly non-issues. There is one where there is a check ==
0.5 and then a special case for a division that would diverge there. The
correct answer is to check for \approx 0.5 and insert an order-1 approximation.
To do otherwise may court numerical issues.
I will go ahead and just make inProgress be volatile in case somebody cares
some day.
