I'm unable to duplicate this problem on my system.
Note that TC will work on 32-bit (x86-32) systems only.

#htcobol -V
TinyCOBOL pre-alpha 0.63.145 ...

#m1
Please enter 123.45
123.45
123.45 should be 123.45

OR with some integer data

#m1
Please enter 123.45
12345
345.00 should be 123.45
Note that '345.00' is correct.

Other than some issues with GCC (I hope not), the only other remote
possibility I can think of is a TC compiler run-time mis-match.
Meaning that the linker is using the wrong library.

You can use the LDD and LS commands to check ...
#ldd m1
libhtcobol.so.0 => /usr/lib/libhtcobol.so.0 ...
...

#ls -l /usr/lib/libhtcob*
#ls -l /usr/lib/local/libhtcob*

If this is the case, un-install TC (make uninstall), check and remove
any other TC libs.
Then re-install (make install) and update (ldconfig -v).

Anyway, I hope this helps.
