Comment #1 on issue 1062 by [email protected]: cctest test-strtod/Strtod
fails on MinGW built V8
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=1062
The test is failing on MinGW 32-bit because it uses x87 FPU by default
which stores immediate results with 80 bits of precision. An alternative is
to use SSE2 for 32-bit/64-bit floating point but means it won't run on
Pentium 3, Athlon XP and other older CPUs which don't support SSE2.
If you don't mind requiring a SSE2 capable CPU for MinGW, a patch is
attached which resolves this issue.
