Isn't it the case that the compiler promotes a float to a double
(64bits on a VAX probably), thus making the stack different from what
you thought it would be.

I believe that that must be the case, because when you call sin(x) and
x is just a float, it must be coerced to a double since the sin() func
is written to take a double.
