The Java 2 JVM model allows double-precision arithmetic in x86 FP
semantics as long as the enclosing method or class is not specified as
`strictfp'.  So, those results are not inflated.

I agree most JVMs have not implemented the FP-strict semantics except
JDK 1.4 and later, BulletTrain (an AOT compiler) and shuJIT.
