fp.bugs 3463 nextToken() parses a lone '.' char in the input stream as a zero

I'm using version 1.0 of the JDK on Windows NT 3.51.
 
nextToken() parses a lone '.' char in the input stream as a 0 (zero)
because the nextToken parser is trying to parse a floating number
and since there are no other digits around the '.' char it returns
the number zero.
 
Thanks,
