Is this specific to cygwin or gcc?

Hello,
I am using cygwin 1.3.1 with gcc 2.95.3. In the simple c program below, 
there seems to be a bug in gcc when using floats. There is a factor of 10.
I asked a friend in Canada to check this on Borland. She replied she got 
everything to work fine and the second result is 8.5 not 85.0 as I am 
getting from cygwin gcc.
Any hints as to what is happening?
Thanks,
George

main()
{ double a, b, c;
 printf("\nEnter a --> ");
 scanf("%lf", &a);
 printf("\nEnter b --> ");
 scanf("%lf", &b);
	c = (a + b) / 2.;
	printf("a is %lf,", a);
	printf(" and b is %lf\n", b);
	printf("The average is %lf\n", c);
}
Enter a --> 6
Enter b --> 7
a is 6.000000, and b is 7.000000
The average is 6.500000
Enter a --> 6.5
Enter b --> 8.5
a is 65.000000, and b is 85.000000
The average is 75.000000
