State-Changed-Why:
pkgsrc perl now works around this problem by stripping -mieee from the
compiler command line when building perl. It's not clear yet whether this
is truly a bug, or if perl is making bad assumptions about float<->int
conversions on NetBSD/alpha. For now, consider this PR "analyzed" and
try to develop a small test case exhibiting this behaviour for the
NetBSD alpha developers.
