There are definitely porting issues in moving from ver 4.x to 5.x They seem to relate to this FAQ http://support.wolfram.com/mathematica/mathematics/numerics/nsumerror.html which states that: You may find that certain calculations involving numerical functions such as NSum, FindMinimum and FindRoot give warning messages in Version 5.0 which were not present in Version 4.2 This happens because the evaluation semantics for these functions have been changed. What were the old evaluation semantics and what are the new ones for these functions? Is there any further documentation on this?
