Google had a glitch with its exchange rate payment calculation a few months ago. Is this a new one?

Canadian AdSense Payment Issued with Incorrect Exchange Rate

[webmasterworld.com...]

"Yes, I'm finally seeing a payment in progress for what appears to be the balance of the month end's payment due as a result of an incorrect exchange rate. And the amount looks correct. Didn't take out my calculator and figure it out to the penny but it looks close enough for rock n' roll."

I suspect it's another glitch. Google would lose a lot of respect and good will for shady dealings with exchange rates. Choosing the lowest exchange rate of the month will anger a lot of people including those who aren't publishers. It may even be illegal.
