Is it a bug of SQL Server 2000 SP4?

Database backup file:
http://www.keepmyfile.com/download/c58b2a565144
Environment:
SQL Server 2000 SP4
Problem:
The following two statements returns different number of records:
Exec GenPeriodical1 102, null, '20050601', '20050630', null, null, 0
SELECT *
FROM dbo.OtherFee (null, '20050601', '20050630', null, null, 0)
WHERE flow_id = 102
This problem wasn't found in SQL Server 2000 original version and SQL Server
2005.
Any help is appreciated!Well, seems like a bug.
You can fix it by rearranginf the FROM clause in the function in the
following manner.
FROM action_room_req2 arr
JOIN flow_action fa ON arr.flow_id = fa.flow_id
JOIN cust_action ca ON ca.valid = 0 AND fa.action_id = ca.id
JOIN action_room ar ON ar.action_id = ca.id AND ar.code = 0
JOIN customer c ON ca.customer_id = c.id
LEFT JOIN turn_rule tr ON arr.req_type = 'Mall' and arr.ref_id = tr.id
