This is not a bug.
Binary floating point cannot represent decimal fractions exactly,
so some rounding always occurs (even in Python 1.5.2).
What changed is that Python 2.0 shows more precision than before
in certain circumstances (repr() and the interactive prompt).
You can use str() or print to get the old, rounded output:
>>> print 0.1+0.1
0.2
>>>
