Comment(by jdemeyer):

 Maybe the attached program might be useful.  It runs a simple computation
 to check whether or not the FPU is 53-bit or more.  For example, on a
 x86_64 Intel machine, I get:

 {{{
 gcc -mfpmath=387 testfpu.c -o testfpu && ./testfpu 134217728 134217728
 a = 134217728, b = 134217728
 result = 1
 }}}
 {{{
 gcc -mfpmath=sse testfpu.c -o testfpu && ./testfpu 134217728 134217728
 a = 134217728, b = 134217728
 result = 0
 }}}
 {{{
 gcc -mfpmath=387 -mpc64 testfpu.c -o testfpu && ./testfpu 134217728
 134217728
 a = 134217728, b = 134217728
 result = 0
 }}}

 You could use to check
  * whether or not the patch needs to be applied
  * whether the result is correct after possibly applying the patch (do
 this on all systems!)
