When an integer is converted to a floating point type which cannot hold it without loss of precision, the conversion is implementation-defined. This apparently means, that the conversion can result in slightly different results for the same number in different functions. Because of this several tests were failing for some 32 bit targets with optimizations enabled (#576). This change removes those tests and instead adds an equivalent test that uses an integer value that can be converted to float without loss of precision.
The question is, should we remove other similar tests that involve lossy conversions? Also, maybe instead of removing those tests, we should check that the results are within and allowed interval?
