Comment(by zimmerma):

 there is one important change in MPFI 1.5.0 which might cause the
 failures: {{{mpfi_set_ui}}} on
 input 0 gives {{{[+0.0,-0.0]}}} instead of {{{[+0.0,+0.0]}}} previously. I
 will ask upstream why:
 {{{
 sage: R=RealIntervalField(53)
 sage: a=R(0)
 sage: a.lower(), a.upper()
 (0.000000000000000, -0.000000000000000)
 }}}

 More annoying is the following, which I believe is a bug in MPFI 1.5.0:
 {{{
 sage: a=R(infinity)
 sage: a.lower(), a.upper()
 (+infinity, +infinity)
 sage: b=1/a
 sage: b.lower(), b.upper()
 (0.000000000000000, -0.000000000000000)
 }}}
 (I would expect {{{b=[+0.0,+0.0]}}}.)
