FWIW, the MIN* values are also wrong on a powerpc running OSX 10.2.4:

% ./ieeeFPbounds | grep FAIL | awk -F\( '{print $1}' 
  Testing for FLT_MIN: FAILED 
  Testing for -FLT_MIN: FAILED 
  Testing for DBL_MIN: FAILED 
  Testing for -DBL_MIN: FAILED 
%

Perhaps its the test program?  I'm in no position to judge, as I know
diddly-squat about FP..
