Well, I could, but they wouldn't be terribly pleased. Your error is to assume that IEEE 754 applies to composite operations, whereas it actually applies to each basic one in turn. To see what is going on, you should print out the balues in binary, octal or hexadecimal, for each sub-operation. As far as I can see, gcc is doing nothing wrong.
