What does the generated assembly look like, and what are the
inputs that screw up?  PowerPC doesn't have an instruction to
convert integer types to floats, so that's done in software.  The
hardest/most esoteric is the conversion from a 64-bit int to a
float (as above with kcountsize), so it wouldn't be surprising if
that's buggy.
