That is why is was good of people who replied to tell us about the version of libm and the hardware they are using along with any parameters they may have altered that might affect testing. It was helpful of them to either "confirm" or "deny" _this_ bug report on target i686-pc-linux-gnu - but it works on a Cray does not assist this report. While Boeing _may_ have had pictures of the Wright brother's aircraft on the wall and considered it's principles when the 747 was designed they are likely going with modern methods of design and construction. I made some more builds of GSL using various combinations of -mfpmath=sse -mfpmath=387 -ffloat-store -fno-float-store and the OS's libm vs. fdlibm: # grep FAIL: ../gsl-1.9-New-Lib/check_1_log.txt | wc -l 1031 # grep FAIL: ../gsl-1.9-New-Lib_float-store/check_1_log.txt | wc -l 1051 # grep FAIL: ../gsl-1.9-fdlibm/check_1_log.txt | wc -l 1036 # grep FAIL: ../gsl-1.9-New-Lib_SSE/check_1_log.txt | wc -l 1030 # grep FAIL: ../gsl-1.9-Old-Lib/check_1_log.txt | wc -l 1063 grep FAIL: ../gsl-1.9-New-Lib_SSE_float-store/check_1_log.txt | wc -l 1051 Currently, using the new libc6 2.6 libm and -mfpmath=sse is one fail better than using -mfpmath=387. I'm doing some more testing to see if I can track down the problem. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32180
