Thanks for your response, Jani.
OK, so it's not a bug. Would you agree that:
1. It is a change in behavior from PHP 4?
2. This change in behavior is undocumented?
This behavior is not normal when compared to the behavior in PHP 4.
I would not call erratic changes in the format of return values
"normal" in any case, since I have never seen anything like this before
in other languages.
And, yes, it is only _printing_, but _printing_ counts.
Here's an example of how _printing_ counts. My code that ran fine on
PHP 4 suddenly threw an error on PHP 5. This code for a financial
transaction used to work just fine, now it breaks for certain values
when writing those values into xml, since the value no longer validates
against the xsd when round() returns the value in exponential notation:
'<AnnualIncome>' . round($income) . '</AnnualIncome>'
Thanks, again, for responding.

Hint: Try replacing the 'echo' with var_dump()..

I don't see any bug here, it's perfectly normal to _print_ it that way
since those are floats.
