Why does that matter? The bulk of the issues come from implementation defined behavior, of which there is plenty within x86 itself to cause issues.
In general, the IEEE-compliant parts of x86 are also IEEE-compliant on other processors, at least the ones I've dealt with. It's the operations that aren't specified by IEEE that cause problems.
