Sure.  If there's anything we can do to zoom in on the problem that
would help.  Significant inaccuracy in trig functions probably is a
bug.

Having said that, Standard C does not guarantee any particular
accuracy for these funtions.  Also, this is probably not a bug in GCC
itself but in whatever C library you're using.
