There seems to be an extra unintended print in the last test.
Helpfully this shows solaris thinks atan -0 , -0 is 0
A large number of tests are failing when run with the jit but not with
other cores
(trans.t is also failing under jit but was disabled before running
make fulltest)

assumed that the extra print was added by someone who had previously
been doing an investigation.
Don't remember doing all this edge case trig stuff in school.

Nope, that's intended ;-)

As Nick G. said, Solaris isn't the only system that show this error.
The big question is what to do:
- document it as faling on these systems
- implement a workaround for these systems
...
What does Perl5 do in such cases?

It asks Steve Peters.

Yes. See config/init/hints/solaris.pl for further details. In brief, for
Sun's compilers, we can use -xlibmieee. I don't know an an equivalent
flag for gcc.
I don't know if The only change in the compilation process. The only
change in the linking stage is that the -xlibmieee flag forces the
inclusion of /opt/SUNWspro/SC4.2/lib/values-xi.o instead of
/opt/SUNWspro/SC4.2/lib/values-xa.o. I don't see an equivalent
replacement one can make in the gcc specs file.
