The use of double variables to store bit patterns may lead to bit flips when the stored bit pattern is a signaling NaN (sNaN). Operations on a sNaN variable (even just returning the variable from a function) may turn it into a quiet NaN (qNaN), flipping the signaling bit and affecting the information stored in the variable. We observed this behaviour on ia32 architectures and therefore in the simulator builds for other platforms. The use of the wrapper class Double should prevent this behaviour.
