Ah, I misremembered the docs for the rtl patterns.
Signed minimum and maximum operations. When used with floating point,
if both operands are zeros, or if either operand is @code{NaN}, then
it is unspecified which of the two operands is returned as the result.
But I think the tree patterns should be the same.

Which, as we've been seeing in this thread, is also a mistake.
