Does anyone know under what circumstances the FPU will generate a -0 ?
I think that would be important in determining how we treat them.

If they're only generated by underflow, for example, we should treat
them as small negative numbers.  If they're only generated by division
by infinity, we should treat it as a regular zero.  Etc.
