 I tried this on my x86 Linux box.
 I'm using the latest gcc and libgcj.
 
 It worked fine for me:
 
 creche. gcj -g -o m --main=m -Wl,-rpath,/x1/egcs/install//lib m.java
 creche. ./m
 -0.4805001434937588
 
 
 Could you try writing the equivalent C program?
 That would tell us whether the bug is in the Java code or is
 elsewhere.
