I've the same problem on my parts.
The parts is (maybe) checked by inlining the edge.dat and then
multiplied this with the radius (for example in MLCAD).
This comes to the result of the review. The points of the edge
with radius 1 is approximate by 4 digits, but this leads to an
error when you multiply this with R to get a new circle with
this radius.
So the question is how to calculate new (round) primitives?
a) With the correct points new calculated as you write above?
or b) With the R=1 points multiplied with the new Radius?
