One of the MPFR developers sent me this test program, which I've called test.c
You would expect both print statements to be the same, as exactly the same
things are being compared, but in fact the output is different with gcc-4.4.0
on Solaris to that with other versions of gcc.
drkir...@kestrel:[~] $ cat test.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <limits.h>
int main (void) {
long int exp = LONG_MIN;
printf ("%lu\n", (exp < (long int) 2 ? 2 : (unsigned long int) exp));
printf ("%lu\n", (exp < (long int) 2 ? 2 : 3));
return 0;
}
drkir...@kestrel:[~] $ gcc test.c
drkir...@kestrel:[~] $ ./a.out

The code works as expected with gcc 3.4.3 on both SPARC machines, and gcc 4.3.2
on the other machine.
drkir...@kestrel:[~] $ /usr/sfw/bin/gcc test.c
drkir...@kestrel:[~] $ ./a.out

The failure appears on 3 different machines - two are SPARC based Suns, and
another is an x_64 machine, which was probably running Solaris, but I can't
confirm that yet.
1) A Sun Blade 2000, running Solaris 10 update 6, where gcc was configured to
use the Sun linker and assembler.

3) A 64-bit machine, which I *think* was running Solaris, but I've no idea
exactly what version, or how gcc was compiled.
