When I run the attached script I get the following output:

[bradbell@brad-home trash]$ ./valgrind_tan_bug.sh
mkdir valgrind_bug
cd valgrind_bug

cat valgrind_bug.cpp
# include <limits>
# include <cmath>
# include <iostream>
int main(void)
{    float x = std::numeric_limits<float>::max() / float(2);
    std::cout << "x           = " << std::endl;
    std::cout << "std::tan(x) = " << std::tan(x) << std::endl;
    return 0;
}

g++ valgrind_bug.cpp -o valgrind_bug -g -Wall -ansi -pedantic-errors -std=c++98 -Wshadow

./valgrind_bug
x           =
std::tan(x) = 1.24272
