The issue appears to be caused by differences in handling floating point arithmetic between Windows/Linux/PPC Macs and Intel Macs (and by the smart-but-error-prone way the code converted negative RA values to integer values).

David Hulse identified the code that causes the problem and proposed a solution. It has been committed to Stellarium's code repository at SourceForge as revision 6025:
