--- Comment #1 from Paul Zimmermann <zimmerma+gcc at loria dot fr> ---
the output of asin(sin(1.5))) is fully correct.
Indeed, sin(1.5) is not exactly representable in double precision, if correct
rounding to nearest it yields y=0x1.feb7a9b2c6d8bp-1. Then asin(y) with correct
rounding to nearest yields 0x1.8000000000001p+0.
