A bit more investigation reveals the issue:

Building logb with -mcpu=power4 or -mcpu=ppc970 results in a negative signed
zero.  This is due to the power4 and ppc970 versions using fsub.

The fcfid insn was introduced after power4 and logb uses that when built for
power5 and power6.  A negative signed zero is not encountered in these cases.

So technically YES, this is still an issue, but it originates in GCC due to
insn selection.
