Giving an update on this. The math issues are reported in glibc
Bugzilla, see https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10163.
Me and Frank are currently working on them, they are mostly
missing/wrongly implemented functionality in errno handling. After
applying the patch by Aurelien from 2009 and some more tweaking, we
managed to fix 30 from 201 tests failing in total, and fixes for more
are under way. The in-progress patch can be accessed in t2-trunk
branch of T2 SDE SVN repository at
http://svn.exactcode.de/t2/trunk/package/base/glibc/math-fpu-error-partial-fix.patch.ia64.

Parallel to that is another effort to debug an issue with gcc's CSE
algorithm at https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=111425. We
managed to bisect the commit causing the issue, as well as analyze
where the segmentation fault is coming from.
