--- Comment #1 from Richard Biener <rguenth at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
The reason is that without -fno-trapping-math if-conversion fails as

iftmp.0_7 = _1 - 1.57079637050628662109375e+0;
tree could trap...

and we are gimplifying gi ? xx-pi2 : xx into control flow (I'm not 100% sure
what the standard says to the conditional operator and short-circuiting
of side-effects but I guess it is a short-circuite operation).

So, confirmed, but I don't see how we could fix this.  You might be able
to fix it by moving xx-pi2 compute to a separate statement.  OTOH sinking
may cause us ending up with exactly the same IL for if-conversion.
