The problem does not occur "always" and probably not on the first "run" of the script.
So if you just run the script one time, everything might look good. Try to reload the
script many times to see the bug. It seems like a heavy system load exploits the bug.
I reproduced the bug on five different (i386) systems with Linux, running different
versions of the Linux Kernel and Apache, using versions of PHP ranging from 4.0.3 to
4.0.6. The bug occurs on every system.

Hi,
Please take a look at this PHP script.
<?php
for($j=0; $j<1000; $j++) {
$result=71.95;
$price=utf8_encode($result);
$price = $price * 2.2 / 2.2;
echo "$price<br>\n";
}
?>
This script should just output 1000x exactly the same but as you can see, the script
sometimes returns "71" instead of "71.95".
Seems to have to do something with type juggling. If we explecitly cast price to a
float, ["$price=(float)utf8_encode($result);"] the script returns only the correct
value.
