The float8 difference looks like float8-small-is-zero is not the correct
comparison file for that platform.  Looking in resultmap I see

float8/.*-freebsd=float8-small-is-zero
float8/i.86-.*-openbsd=float8-small-is-zero
float8/i.86-.*-netbsd=float8-small-is-zero

I generally think it suspicious when one of the BSD ports varies from
the other two, and here it would seem that it's wrong for freebsd to
be out of step.  I propose making the entry read

float8/i.86-.*-freebsd=float8-small-is-zero

Any comments from freebsd users out there?  Are there any other freebsd
platforms besides i86 and alpha?  If so, how do they do on this test?
        regards, tom lane
