I think so but we really need to check it in a case-by-case basis (I can
do this when I have some spare time, but will really appreciate if
someone who uses these everyday to provide a hand :).  To make a long
story short, it seems that the floating number implementation of the
javascript engine uses some hackish magic which will raise upperflow
exception on, at least, FreeBSD/i386 and amd64.
