For reference regarding some of the failures you listed on the wiki:
* The tgamma failures for AArch64 with an old compiler indicate you are
missing the GCC fix for
<https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=66731>. (The other math/
failures there are probably compiler bugs but I don't have specific
references.)
* The test-ldouble failures for x86 should just have "make regen-ulps" run
on the affected system (the functions in question use x87 transcendental
math instructions so the exact results are expected to depend on the
hardware).

I think we should revert the problem change / changes to get 2.25 to the
same state as 2.24.
