Hi,

I am currently migrating monetdb from an old version to the current release, and I noticed that sum on double precision columns is returning a slightly different result between both versions. The only difference between the system is HugeInt enabled on the newer version.

ex: To reproduce the mismatch (subset of values extracted from the table)
SELECT sum(cast(c1 as double)) --, sum(c1)

The aggregation over double columns should return the same result regardless of the engine versions, as the double precision type did not change, unless there was a bug reported and it was fixed.

Any idea what could affect the result difference.

Regards.
