Try paranoia.c. A web search should turn up multiple copies, I found one at
http://www.enseeiht.fr/NetLib/paranoia/index.html
A while back I had the floating point emulator from kernel 2.3 patched into
kernel 2.2.13 running on an MBX, and it did reasonably well on this test as I
recall.
>From the comments in paranoia.c:
A C version of Kahan's Floating Point Test "Paranoia"
Thos Sumner, UCSF, Feb. 1985
David Gay, BTL, Jan. 1986
This is a rewrite from the Pascal version by
B. A. Wichmann, 18 Jan. 1985
(and does NOT exhibit good C programming style).
