   Okay, so that might be because the compiled code uses FMADD which 
potentially removes one rounding step, yielding slightly different results.
   
   We can probably simply relax the test a tiny little bit.
   
   Given that this is gonna come up in other situations, we may add some helper 
functions:
   ```c++
   bool WithinUlp(float left, float right, int n_ulps);
   bool WithinUlp(double left, double right, int n_ulps);
   
   void AssertWithinUlp(float left, float right, int n_ulps);
   void AssertWithinUlp(double left, double right, int n_ulps);
   ```
   
   I can write those helpers if that sounds ok.
