            Bug ID: 45211
           Summary: Wrong optimization with ppc_fp128: 1 - 1 -> -0
           Product: new-bugs
           Version: trunk
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P
         Component: new bugs

For a PowerPC target, with the type long double (IBM extended double /
double-double / ppc_fp128) expression `1 - 1` is folded to `-0` instead of
`+0`. This type is not IEEE 754 type but for values representable in double the
results should be the same, I guess?

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
    long double x = 1;

    printf("%Lg\n", x - 1);
}
