Passing floats - Is this a bug?

yes, I have seen the same problem (in the middle of a large program)

The -float doesn't help as it doesn't prevent the promotion of arguments
to double, merely the promotion of expressions to double.

the way to *avoid* the bug is to

#define float double

horrid, but it works on my program. Haven't ttried it on your test case 
(this machine ain't an iris)
