1. [New comment] Conversion from Ironpython's Decimal to System.Decimal loses precision.
http://ironpython.codeplex.com/workitem/33830
User vernondcole has commented on the issue:

"This sounds a lot like issue 18220 -- proposed by me 2008-08-20 and marked as fixed by jdhardy 2012-03-10 for release 2.7.2.1. -- except that this is going in the other direction.
Jeff fixed:
d = System.Decimal(12345.67891)
dd = decimal.Decimal(d)
TypeError: Cannot convert <decimal object at 0x000000000000002D> to Decimal

The workaround for that was:
dd=decimal.Decimal(str(d))

A similar workaround should work here.

Hopefully, the fix can be done in less than five years, this time.  :-)
