 Fix the examples.

 There are reasons why building for deterministic floating point might be
 worth the performance cost, but examples relying upon 80-bit intermediate
 precision isn't such a reason, IMHO.

 Can you identify the examples in question? Is it just a case of performing
 approximate-equality comparisons with too low a tolerance?
