Thanks for all the new info! I don't think that it's a bytcode problem.
I start to wonder if it's in number parsing...

On line 1102 of "src/racket/src/numstr.c", there's a call to STRTOD().
Does it change anything if you wrap that call with calls to
scheme_push_c_numeric_locale() and scheme_pop_c_numeric_locale(loc)?:

Locales? Then maybe I wasn't crazy for thinking the bug might discriminate against people whose first language isn't English? Laurent speaks French and I think Marijn speaks Dutch.

(Beautiful country, BTW, Marijn. I was at Avifauna for a conference.)

I had an email about this ready, but then I tried switching DrRacket's language to French and Dutch to see if I could duplicate it. I couldn't, so I deleted the email.
