Java has already been moved away from using MIN/MAX_EXPR. See PR
25676.
tree.def says:
/* Minimum and maximum values. When used with floating point, if both
operands are zeros, or if either operand is NaN, then it is unspecified
which of the two operands is returned as the result. */
Which means to me zero and negative zero are handled as zero which is why Java
moved away from using MIN/MAX_EXPR.
