--- Comment #2 from Joseph Myers <jsm28 at gcc dot gnu.org> 2012-02-22 22:22:26 UTC ---
The tests given in this bug take the double constants 0.3 and 0.4 and convert
them to long double.  The results of cacoshl appear to be within a few ULPs of
what is expected for those particular long double values, whereas the
expectations given in this testcase are the results for infinite-precision
constants 0.3 and 0.4 (as opposed to those for values rounded to 53 bits then
extended to 64 bits, or rounded directly to 64 bits) - and when your inputs
differ by 11 bits from what they were intended to be, 770 ULPs is hardly an
unexpected error.  So this is not a correct test and there is no sign of undue
inaccuracy here (I don't think it's yet expected for complex functions to be
last-bit-accurate correctly rounded).
