Comment (by jstolarek):

 > it should probably be a new bug report
 I'm not sure if tweaking a newly created test is worth an extra bug
 report.


 > Is this failure occurring on HEAD?
 Yes. I wouldn't report it otherwise.


 > I cannot reproduce this on my 32bit Linux:
 I assume that the test passes also when you run it with `make TEST=T8116
 WAY=ghci` in testsuite/tests? I'm not really surprised. Floating-point
 comparisons are very unreliable, so testing for equality of floats is a
 risky thing to do.
