I can confirm this. Upstream git trunk suffers from this problem.
I have filed an internal issue for our developers to review.
If you are looking to help with the bug I can give you some guidance.
(a) Checkout latest glibc/glibc-ports git.
http://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/GlibcGit#Fetching_The_Repository
(b) Apply the required patches.
(c) Build and test.
(d) File a bugzilla issue against libc->math, describe the bug,
describe the fix, attach the patch and list the testing you did.
(e) Post similar email to libc-alpha with pointer to bugzilla issue
asking for one of the core maintainers (Roland or Ulrich) to checkin
the patch.
Thanks!
Cheers,
Carlos.
