Undoing revision 377 (reverting just those files modified by that

commit).  I have disovered the fundamental problem to the math error problems,
and although this commit (r377) is "correct", it fails to address the
fundamental problem.  Therefore, I'd rather leave the code in a state that
has the exact same behavior as before until I get a chance to address the
fundamental issue.
