Yosemite decimal number conversion error

I found an error with decimal number conversion from AppleScript's ‘real' into Cocoa's ‘float'.
Is it well-known?

I found this when I check the sorting result…. List-NSArray-list conversion broke original list data.


<AppleScript>
use AppleScript version "2.4"
use framework "Foundation"
use scripting additions

set a to 0.100001
set b to numberFloatWith_(a)
--> 0.100000999868

set c to numberDoubleWith_(a)
--> 0.100000999868

set d to numberLongWith_(a)
--> 0.0

set e to 0.1
set f to numberFloatWith_(e)
--> 0.10000000149


--Float
on numberFloatWith:aNum
	set theNum to current application's NSNumber's numberWithFloat:aNum
	return (theNum as real)
end numberFloatWith:

--Double
on numberDoubleWith:aNum
	set theNum to current application's NSNumber's numberWithDouble:aNum
	return (theNum as real)
end numberDoubleWith:

--Long
on numberLongWith:aNum
	set theNum to current application's NSNumber's numberWithLong:aNum
	return (theNum as real)
end numberLongWith:
</AppleScript>
