For the X86 fp128 tests, the following is going on as far as I understand:

There is a node `t9: f128 = select t8, t2, t4`. During legalization of this node the following happens

- the result is softened
- the operands are scanned
- One integer operand is promoted
- The node has to be re-analyzed again, which means it's marked as NewNode again
- On the next iteration of the main loop, PerformExpensiveChecks fails because the result of  `t9: f128 = select t8, t2, t4` has been added to SoftenedFloats, but the node isn't marked as Processed yet.

But after thinking about it a little more I feel like there should be a better solution than my patch.
