TL;DR summary: clang is broken for numerical on i686 FreeBSD.

which is bad (ulp means errors in the Unit of Last Place).

By default OpenLibm uses "-march=i686 -O3 -m32" on an i686 target.
The commandline used in compiling s_exp2f.c is 

   clang -fno-builtin -fno-strict-aliasing -O3 -fPIC -march=i686 -m32
   -std=c99 -Wall -I/usr/home/kargl/tmp/olibm
   -I/usr/home/kargl/tmp/olibm/include -I/usr/home/kargl/tmp/olibm/i387
   -I/usr/home/kargl/tmp/olibm/src -DASSEMBLER -D__BSD_VISIBLE
   -Wno-implicit-function-declaration -I/usr/home/kargl/tmp/olibm/ld80
   -c src/s_exp2f.c -o src/s_exp2f.c.o

If I use -O1 or -O2 I get the same above results.  If I 
change to -O0, I get

   clang -fno-builtin -fno-strict-aliasing -O0 -fPIC -march=i686 -m32
   -std=c99 -Wall -I/usr/home/kargl/tmp/olibm

This is better, but still bad.  If I remove -m32, I get

   clang -fno-builtin -fno-strict-aliasing -O0 -fPIC -march=i686
   -std=c99 -Wall -I/usr/home/kargl/tmp/olibm
   -I/usr/home/kargl/tmp/olibm/include -I/usr/home/kargl/tmp/olibm/i387

This is good, but unoptimized.  If I use -O1, -O2, or -O3 without
-m32, I get the initial bad results above.  If I change -march=i686
to -march=pentiumpro, I get the same results.

Theoretically, OpenLibm would test for SSE capabilities and choose
a better -march, but it doesn't.  This, however, is unimportant.
Any port that uses clang (or cc) that does numerical computation
and uses -march=i686 (or pentiumpro) is likely broken.
