Really? Do you have any evidence for this? In that case we might want to use 
Vitaliys original patch which just changed the precision of the printed 
float, since the patches I just sent break this ability. Henri and I 
considered them as theoretical, since the HLSL compiler or shader author 
would have removed those codepaths already
