+        Unfortunately, there is a bug in the script engine (still present in
+       4.0.6, probably resolved in 4.0.7) so that this does not always work
+       correctly when there are negative numbers involved. However when both
+       operands are positive, there is no problem. For example: when you do 
+       <literal>-50000 * $million</literal>, the result will be
+       <literal>-429496728</literal>.
