This looks a lot like a compiler bug, then.  Do you agree?

I guess the next step would be to try to extract a smallest failing 
example from the Python code, and report the bug to Sun.  It might first
be interesting to insert some printfs in cmath_log to see where things 
go wrong (cmath_log does 2 log computations and a complex division; any 
of these 3 operations might be doing something strange.  Of course, it's 
always possible that the compiler bug goes away when the printfs are 
added.)

But at this point I'm going to claim that this bug isn't Python's fault, 
and suggest that this issue should be closed.
