The 8 instructions or so that I quoted would have been enough. And
those instructions seem to be assembled OK.
Btw did you ever check the value that was loaded in the CW, so the 16
bit value in -2(%edx) ?

I would trust the trace, more then the debugger. Things can be really
tricky though with floating points. The only way to be 100% sure is to
to show the actual bit pattern. All zero's is 0.0. Anything else is
not, but a printf can still print 0.0.
If you manage to find how this eM11 is stored in memory (in winedbg
with something like x &(dc->xformWorld2Vport.eM11) then I can tell you
if there is something wrong with it.
