I've had the exact same problem a while back, and the called their
toll-free help number (the one they don't list in the manual, I can
look it up if you want).  It's a bug, they know about it, they plan to
do something about somewhen, and offer the following workaround:

change

float (*fx)();

into

double (*fx)();

and it will work.  (They're right about that, I tried)
