[Bug target/7285] [ia64] unsigned-to-floating conversion not spec conformant


------- Additional Comments From jbeulich at novell dot com  2004-03-18 10:59 -------
Hmm, that's a little strange. While certainly the denormal exception would be
masked in most cases, did you make sure the denormal flag wasn't already set in
sf0? And even if so, are you sure the software assist fault handler didn't get
into the picture here? I am certain I saw the flag get set when I was initially
observing/researching this (but then again this was on an Itanium, you're most
likely using an Itanium2, and even though there is no statement about different
behavior of the two in this respect - who knows)...
