Would you check and see if commit 27b9a420ea87fd85c0c933b7db77a9efb22f94cf
fixes this bug (FLT_MAX issue) for you?

Really, if the GCC code were LGPL 2.1 then I'd just go grab that since it's
well tested, but unfortunately GCC is GPL 3.  Would you mind opening a separate
bug for this and adding me to the CC list?  We can probably get some
"todo_wine" tests added now, but fixing it for real will probably need to wait
until after code freeze is over (unless the solution is really compelling).
