[issue9069] test_float failure on Solaris

Now that I've finally managed to get gcc 4.4.4 installed on OpenSolaris...

.. I'm still failing to reproduce this bug. :(

As far as I can tell, this setup is almost identical to David's 'hawk' machine (same gcc version, same OpenSolaris build, same Python source revision).

I'm not really sure where I can go from here.

Stefan, you're not able to reproduce this by any chance, are you?
