It seems that many of the unit test failures happen when the function
henon is involved. This function computes the Henon map with a default
transient initial period of 10000 samples. The computation in the henon
function is iterative and my guess is that the results are sensitive to
the architecture-specific floating point representation. Would
-ffloat-store help here?
