Postscript: the failure Skip reported looks like a duplicate of issue 9069,
which was tracked down to a gcc compiler bug in gcc 4.4.x (x = 4) and gcc
4.5.x (x = 0). That compiler bug is now fixed.

The tanh-related failures are no longer happening, since the FreeBSD
buildbot was upgraded from FreeBSD 6.2 to FreeBSD 6.4.
I'm still worried by Skip's report, but that's a separate issue.
Closing.

The round tests for large values have been broken out into their own test;
this test is now skipped (only if it would fail) on Linux/alpha. See
r76176 (trunk), r76177 (py3k) and r76178 (release31-maint).
The round function itself needs

The round function in release26-maint is fixed (r76179). I'm not sure
whether the round_large test needs to be skipped for release26-maint,
since the Python 2.6 version of round doesn't use the libm round
function.

May be one day python modules will deal with TANH_PRESERVES_ZERO_SIGN

New submission from Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com:
There are some buildbot failures due to platform-specific bugs that need
to be marked as expected failures, using the unittest.expectedFailure
decorator. This may require reorganizing the tests slightly.
* tanh(-0.0) produces 0.0 instead
Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com added the comment:
Oops. I meant 'platform' bugs, not 'platform-specific' bugs. These are
not bugs in Python, but in the underlying C library.
