Bingo: something is supplying a whole bunch of "helpful" optimization
options, including -ffast-math which is what's causing your problem.
Left to its own devices, configure would have only selected "-O2" as
the default flags for gcc.

I suspect if you try "env | grep CFLAGS" you will find that the problem
is a CFLAGS environment variable that you're inheriting from somewhere.
If so, you could "unset CFLAGS" and then re-run configure, rebuild,
reinstall (you won't need to initdb fortunately, just reinstall the
executables).

If it's not coming from a CFLAGS environment variable setting then
you'll need to look harder.
