Description Emre Eraltan 2009-04-22 16:01:48 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
Trying to left shifting 10 places the binary number 1 should give 10000000000 in binary mode (1024 in decimal). The calculator returns 10100 in binary (20 in decimal)

Steps to reproduce:
1. Switch to binary mode
2. Type 1
3. Shift left 10 places the displayed value


Actual results:
The calculator returns the binary number 10100

Expected results:
The calculator should have returned the binary number 10000000000 = 2^10 (in decimal)

Does this happen every time?
yes

Other information:
Right shifting returns also bad values.
This was not happening on Fedora 7.
I am using the Gcalctool provided with Fedora 10.
