This C|Net news story
http://yahoo.cnet.com/news/0-1003-200-2719802.html?pt.yfin.cat_fin.txt.ne
breaks the news about format bugs to the main stream media, but
describes it as a UNIX/Linux problem.  I see no reason why this class of
bugs should be restricted to UNIX code.  However, I also cannot recall
seeing a format bug announced for Windows yet.  Anyone know of an
instance?
