Results are correct on simulator build 1089

Makes no sense, that code hasn't changed in over 2 years! What I changed is the compiler... I wonder if there's some shady compiler optimization that's hurting the math code. I'll take a look, but that's very bad news... As soon as I release the new ROM, we'll need to do thorough testing to make sure all results are correct.
Thanks for the report!
And yes, I don't have a problem in you translating the wiki to French. I wonder if there's a way to switch languages in the same wiki, then I would just give you access to the wiki and you could write it directly in the official one. I'll investigate that.

EDIT: I just downloaded the android port and checked, all results are correct and it's version 1177. I'm sure the compiler is exactly the same (different ARM targets but still), I did not change compilers between 1177 and 1180 so this is very strange. I'll check if the latest build has the problem and will replace the bogus builds in the server so people don't download them. The only thing I can think of is that by updating the compiler for the newer chips perhaps they broke something for the old ones. Perhaps I'll have to downgrade the compiler to an older version. We'll see.
