BUG! Erratic for loop behavior

Hello,


The output of this loop:
------------------------------
for i = 9.4 to 10.0 by .1 do
  ? i
end for
------------------------------
stops at 10, as expected.


The output of this loop:
------------------------------
for i = 31.1 to 34.2 by .1 do
  ? i
end for
------------------------------
stops at 34.1 (!), NOT as expected.


The output of this loop:
------------------------------
for i = 131.1 to 134.2 by .1 do
  ? i
end for
------------------------------
stops at 134.2, as expected.


The output of this loop:
------------------------------
for i = 60.0 to 64.5 by .1 do
  ? i
end for
------------------------------
stops at 64.4, NOT as expected.


I've verified this on exw.exe & ex.exe, as well as translated to C.  It 
looks like an outright bug to me.
