The worst-case precision is massively improved - as I noted in the
original patch submission, the testcases added by the patch showed (on
x86_64) errors of up to 203 ulp for float, 1713 ulp for double and 12714
ulp for long double. It only appears as a decrease in precision because
the testsuite coverage for tgamma was previously so limited.

If those trace back to missing underflows from atanl / atan2l (if the part
of the result of casinh / casin that should underflow is the one computed
by atan2l), then that's another instance of bug 15319, in which case you
could change them to UNDERFLOW_EXCEPTION_OK and add a comment like the
existing instances of
/* Bug 15319: underflow exception may be missing. */
(if they trace to some other cause, a separate bug should be filed).
