 The problem with our libm (msun) vs. gcc-3 is reproduceable on Linux:
 
 	(Note, FreeBSD's /usr is mounted as /misha on the Linux machine)
 
 mteterin@nylinux:lib/msun/src (982) cc -v
 Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2/specs
 Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man 
 --infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix 
 --disable-checking --host=i386-redhat-linux --with-system-zlib 
 --enable-__cxa_atexit
 Thread model: posix
 gcc version 3.2 20020903 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7)
 mteterin@nylinux:lib/msun/src (983) cc -O -march=pentium3 -I- -I. 
 -I/misha/src/include -I/misha/src/sys -I/misha/obj/misha/src/i386/usr/include 
 e_pow.c t.c e_sqrt.c -D__generic___ieee754_sqrt=__ieee754_sqrt
 mteterin@nylinux:lib/msun/src (984) ./a.out                                     
 2^2.1 is 4.28709
 mteterin@nylinux:lib/msun/src (985) cc -O -march=pentium4 -I- -I. 
 -I/misha/src/include -I/misha/src/sys -I/misha/obj/misha/src/i386/usr/include 
 e_pow.c t.c e_sqrt.c -D__generic___ieee754_sqrt=__ieee754_sqrt
 mteterin@nylinux:lib/msun/src (986) ./a.out                                     
 2^2.1 is 0
 
 As can be seen above, using pentium3 produces the correct result, while
 pentium4 produces the incorrect 0. We can, pretty much, rule out a kernel
 problem in handling MMX/SSE. Which is it -- our __ieee754_pow or the gcc?
