Other than MAYBE some obscure chipset problem with floating point conversion?
*boggle* This is a first for me, I've never seen anything remotely close
happen....
2 things to possibly try...
1) explicitly typecast the result back to the int form, perhaps it's an
implicit problem
(ie: save = (int)(((victim->level/2) - (level/2)) * 5 -
victim->saving_throw * 1.25); )
2) Mayhaps use a float for the save? not that it would make much of a
difference, but
it should work if nothing else will.... *shrug*
Good luck, that's one heck of a bug
