iirc underflow doesn't work quite the way either you or Darren said; it's
not just the signed zero, it's also a status flag indicating that that
signed zero reflects an underflow condition. What it is not is a separate
value as Darren seemed to think. But it's also not merely the signed zero,
although in some cases that may be sufficient.
