I checked out the R000305f0-branch from cvs and compiled it with the
same results.  The test suite passes everything except for that single
case.

!!!FAILURES!!!
Test Results:
Run:  103   Failures: 1   Errors: 0


1) test: Testing cap/floor dependency on strike (F) line: 154
capfloor.cpp
  "NPV is increasing with the strike in a cap:
     length: 5 years
     volatility: 1.00 %
     value: -0.000000 at strike: 6.00 %
     value: 0.000000 at strike: 7.00 %"

I'm going to try to investigate it some more on the weekend and I'll be
glad to give you any feedback you need.

I meant that for the 0.3.4 package but I see in History.txt/News.txt
that your planning on the 0.3.5 release at the end of march.  Hopefully
we can get this resolved for that release.

Mark.
