[Bug c/37544] New: Conversion double -> unsigned long long -> unsigned -> double gives wrong results

Consider the following line of the attached test case, where a is double with
value 4294967296.0.
double b = (unsigned int)((unsigned long long int)a % 4294967296ULL);
Then (unsigned long long int)a % 4294967296ULL should be equal to 0ULL, and
therefore b should be 0.0. However, when compiled with -O1 -march=pentium4, b
gets the wrong value of 4294967296.0 (the same as a). Note that the error only
occurs with -march=pentium4.
To compile the testcase:
gcc -std=c99 -O1 -march=pentium4 convert-bug.i -o convert-bug
gcc -v:
Using built-in specs.
