Fix erfcf spurious underflows (bug 18217).
The flt-32 implementation of erfcf produces spurious underflow exceptions for some arguments close to 0, because of calculations squaring the argument and then multiplying by small constants. This patch fixes this by adjusting the threshold for arguments for which the result is so close to 1 that 1 - x will give the right result from 2**-56 to 2**-26. (If 1 - x * 2/sqrt(pi) were used, the errors would be on the order of x^3 and a much larger threshold could be used.) Tested for x86_64 and x86. [BZ #18217] * sysdeps/ieee754/flt-32/s_erff.c (__erfcf): Use 2**-26 not 2**-56 as threshold for returning 1 - x. * math/auto-libm-test-in: Add more tests of erfc. * math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated.
