This isn't a Awt or libgcj bug itself, but rather an effect of the extended-mode
of FPU being the default leading to inconsistent results with 64-bit doubles. 

A suggestion for a 'fix' is to set the FPU to 64-bit double rounding for Java
programs, since Java does not have a 'long double' type. This would both
stricter and give more consistent results with other platforms.
