Thanks for the report, and all the sleuthing.  It's always good to see Python's test suite expose C library (or C compiler) bugs. :-)

I propose closing this as 'won't fix':  I certainly wouldn't want to add workarounds in the cmath source (though in theory that would be possible).  I don't really think it's worth adding special cases to the test-suite, either.  What do you think?
