There is definitely something broken in libm when HAVE_FPU is
defined... More specifically, the problem seems to be in the
__ieee754_pow() function defined in src/lib/msun/src/e_pow.c. I
have not been able to nail down the exact problem, but if anyone
else is interested --
You can duplicate the problem by:
1) make world with HAVE_FPU defined in /etc/make.conf
2) Build and install povray from the port.
3) cd /usr/local/lib/povray3/pov3demo/radios.
4) povray +L/usr/local/lib/povray3/include +Irad2.pov +Orad2.tga +V +X rad2.ini
You will be rewarded with a core dump (FPE).
Or you can build Mesa2.0 from the port, and try to execute the
'wave' demo in the 'samples' directory. You will get the same results.
