GAR!  So the problem is obvious.  Not only is GCC emitting the wrong
comparison condition (<> vs. !=), but log(-8.0) is returning a
signalling NaN on GNU/Linux, and a quiet one on HP/UX:

avalanche:~# ./fptest3
foo.l is 7fffffffffffffff
!!die_if_kernel: fptest3(154): Floating point exception 14
(etc...)

bash-2.03$ ./fptest3
foo.l = 7ff4000000000000

Time for the self-LART again I guess :)
