Looks like freebsd has decided to become mainstream on underflow
handling. You need to figure out how we should adjust the resultmap
entry for freebsd to not select float8-small-is-zero.out on 5.
Possibly
float8/i.86-.*-freebsd4=float8-small-is-zero
would do --- are there any pre-4.0 boxes still out there?
