Hrvoje Nikšić added the comment:

The compilation was performed with the default flags, i.e. without -fp-model 
strict or similar.

If Python requires strict IEEE 754 floating-point, it should probably be 
mentioned at a prominent place in the documentation. Administrators building 
Python with alternative compilers or on non-gcc Unix systems might not be aware 
of the issue.
