I wonder if the bug is caused by errata of core2duo processor 
because the bug was only reproduced on core2duo and pentium D. 
(- not on UltraSPARC III)

Intel Core2duo processor has errata in its FPU 
- Errata AI20, AI38 (*1).
And, the processor has  workarounds of the errata.
If these workaround was not implemented in the GCC version,
the bug might be caused by these errata.

And, Intel Celeron M processor also has similar errata 
- Errata W34, W56 (*2).
