I'll guess that the reference system has changed. I can't freeze my OS
at some 1996 (or 2000) vintage version to guarantee that results never
change. I went the last year or two with that geometry test failing for
me. I'm not sure what results I'd get with the latest glibc, but once I
upgrade we'll find out.
What system are you running for which you would expect an exact match of
test results in the transcendental functions?

I had carefully inspected the differences (over and over and over) and
they were all trivial last-decimal-place kinds of things afaicr.
Actually, I'm responding here like I'm the one who made the change, but
I haven't gone back to the cvs logs to confirm that.
