Comment:

The failure is due to the test requiring a specific set of compiler options which are not normally provided. The workaround is specific to a particular compiler and would insert compiler dependent options into the thorn's Makefile.

A cleaner solution may be to offer "PRECISE" compiler flags through the Cactus build system for those parts of the code that are dependent on standards conforming math. This is low priority since it is only of interest to a relatively small set of thorns.
