So I hope you don't mind me closing this task.

Soeren,

I've gotten farther on this one, enough to get around it. The problem seems to have been that the products were weighed in pounds. This caused rounding errors (of course), but it also seemed to create a loop in the payment process as well. The conversion from pounds to kilos also accounted for the perception that only the first product was being looked at.

On a hunch, I changed the product weights to kilos, and all of my strange problems disappeared.

To answer your question, yes, this was with the standard shipping module.

What makes you think so?
Have you debugged this a little bit? Isn't the total cart weight correctly calculated an provided to the Shipping Module?
You are using the 'Standard Shipping' module?
