It may be related to 64-bit (as that uses sse for floating point), or
to the fact that I use ssh on a remote host, which causes more context
switches. I'll try to reproduce on 32 bits with my setup.
It doesn't reproduce on a 32-bit host. However, it does reproduce on a
32-bit guest on a 64-bit host, and on a 32-bit user load running in a
64-bit guest on a 64-bit host.
I'm attaching an updated test program which makes it easier to spot the
failures. You only need to run it on the guest, although running it on
the host as well increases the failure rate significantly.
