Well, it might be, but I was getting this with Jazzbench occasionally as
well, and it doesn't check...  Of course, that could be another bug in
the silly thing as well.

df0: to rad: works just fine right now.  Only in very weird circumstances
does it complain.  Now if only I had a 12V 2.5A, 5V 2A power supply for
my hard drive/memory, my computer might be useful again... :-(
