[Bug math/15425] New: exp fails to raise underflow exception


http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15425

             Bug #: 15425
           Summary: exp fails to raise underflow exception
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.18
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: math
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: jsm28@gcc.gnu.org
    Classification: Unclassified


On x86_64, exp (-0x1.75f113c30b1c8p+9) fails to raise the underflow exception,
though the result correctly underflows to 0.  (Tested with current glibc master
revision a07c5731d63d0db1659d273ee42d46ac15daeffc, on hardware that uses the
IFUNC version of exp built for AVX, although I suspect that's irrelevant and
the bug is more generic.)

(Discovered through the consequential effect of tgamma (-0xb8.000000000008p0)
also failing to raise underflow.)
