No; can you extract the problem into a simple test case?  If
the wrong values occur randomly and/or depend on the state
of the rest of the program in a complex way, memory
corruption elsewhere in your program is the likely cause
(try valgrind).  If wrong values are rare but reproducible,
it should be easy to prepare a simple test case.
