Comment:

 I'm pretty sure I know why this is happening. Basically this program's
 output is very sensitive to whether certain floating-point numbers that
 are very close to zero wind up being positive or negative. It might be
 worth tracking down exactly why the behavior differs when GHC is built
 with LLVM at some point though.
