I expect some extra math/ test failures for powerpcspe as well.  There's a 
documented processor erratum for wrong signs of zero results for 
single-precision floating-point results (erratum CPU 4 at 
<https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/errata/MPC8548ECE.pdf>), which resulted in 
test failures the last time I tried, and an undocumented (as far as I 
know) issue with not implementing proper before-rounding tininess 
detection.
