Incorrect value when setting an override for start/end frame

[Anonymous]

Using the new Render Setup Python API in Maya 2016 Ext 2, if I create an override and set its value, the result is 1/250th of the expected result.

In the example below, the result in the UI (or from a query) would 0.004. If I set it to 250, than the value is 1. I've only observed this with start/end frame. Playing with settings on my timeline or changing the frame stepping have no effect.

newOverride = newLayer.createAbsoluteOverride("defaultRenderGlobals","startFrame", renderSettingsCollection)
newOverride.setAttrValue(1)

However, if I set the attribute on the override node, it works fine:

maya.cmds.setAttr("startFrame.attrValue", 1)

Is this a bug or am I using the wrong method to set the value of the override?
