  Hi Ben,

  I'm unable to reproduce that one in trunk:

  
  $ shotgun/rubinius
  irb(main):001:0> "-0".to_f
  => -0.0
  irb(main):002:0> "-0.0".to_f
  => -0.0

  on linux/x86_64

  $ git pull

  Already up-to-date.

  $ shotgun/rubinius

  irb(main):001:0> "-0".to_f

  => 0.0

  Interesting.

  Looks like it might be a platform specific issue.

  (I tested on an intel mac running OS X 10.5.1)

  Cannot reproduce on OS X 10.5.1 on an Intel processor either:

  irb(main):002:0> "-0".to_f

  => -0.0

  irb(main):003:0> "-0.".to_f

  => -0.0

  irb(main):004:0> "-0.0".to_f

  => -0.0

  I have this this problem too with my Gutsy x86_32. I think it was caused by an error in strtod() in libc6 that has been fixed here. That means you will have this problem if you use libc6 version <= 2.6.1.

  This bug will be resolved when we take the same approach that MRI does and use a single, imported version of strtod. See #379.

  Should be fixed with the inclusion of shotgun/external_libs/libgdtoa.

  Closing for now. Reopen if needed.
