OK, so suggested way is to use it for x86_64 as well and fix generic
infrastructure?
Note that the definition if min/max for floats is pretty touchy.
SSE defines that for two zeros, always second zero is returned
and for unordered too, so it corresponds to the <
other may define <= equivalent or some other changes.
Perhaps keeping if_then_else is better way and update the ia64/rs6000 respectivly.
What do you think?
