Fix x86_64 / x86 expm1l (-min_subnorm) result sign (bug 18569).
In the x86 / x86_64 implementations of expm1l, when expm1l's result should underflow to 0 (argument minus the least subnormal, in some rounding modes), it can be a zero of the wrong sign. This patch fixes this by returning the argument with underflow forced in that case (this is a 1ulp error relative to the correctly rounded result of -0, which is OK in terms of the documented accuracy goals, whereas a result with the wrong sign never is). Tested for x86_64 and x86. [BZ #18569] * sysdeps/i386/fpu/e_expl.S (IEEE754_EXPL) [USE_AS_EXPM1L]: Force underflow and return argument in case of subnormal argument. * sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/e_expl.S (IEEE754_EXPL) [USE_AS_EXPM1L]: Likewise. * math/auto-libm-test-in: Add more tests of expm1. * math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated.
