It does not appear by default, as I originally though. However, I have figured out how to replicate it, and it works in any view.

-(5)/4

That will give you -1625, and afterward all answers with decimals will be wrong. With this knowledge it is now obvious that it is not caused by a font's lack of a full stop.
Multiple instances of gcalctool do not interfere with each other, so it is possible to have one calculator that is malfunctioning while another works as expected.

The bug specifically uses a 6 in place of a decimal, so if the number should be 1.25 it will become 1625, and similarly, if the number should be 1.6 it becomes 166.
