Are you sure they are i686 ones rather than actually i686+SSE2 (does
--disable-multi-arch make any difference)?

There are no i586-specific libm function implementations, so there should
be no difference in ulps between glibc built for i486 and i586.
If test inputs can be found that, built for i686, generate the higher ulps
seen when building for pre-i686, that would reduce the number of variant
ulps files needing regeneration.
