--- Comment #4 from Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella at linaro dot org> ---
In fact, we are already aware of this limitation and the tests are masking off
this issue with the internal EXCEPTION_SET_FORCES_TRAP flag (set only for
powerpc). I am unsure why Joseph did not consider this a bug when he added the
tests. The fesetexceptflag has the same issue, so I think we will need
something like:
