Problem Note 13463: Math SQRT function does not work correctly on negative values

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It
The math SQRT function will not work correctly when the argument
is negative.  A warning is logged, and the result of evaluating
sqrt is set to NULL.  This is not treated as an error.  For
example, if the error occurs during transaction load, the
transaction is not rejected.
