Nice fix. I don't see it listed in your change log.

Is it simple enough to make a patch for the sourceforge tracker?

Subject: Re: [PD] hslider/vslider - mismatch of input and output

Indeed, that is the most likely reason. If you have ability/willpower to
try pd-l2ork version of hslider/vslider, this problem is solved in that
any values that pass through the slider set to linearly scale between
specific values remain unaltered (apart from outer edges of the slider).
However, any values that result from moving the slider will be adjusted
based on the slider's position in respect to the overall slider.
