Hi, Maxim!

Thanks for the fixes and verbose comments!

LGTM, except a few nits below.

Please, mention that mips/ppc-related changes are omitted due to
conflicts with the previous patches to backport.

I suggest to create an additional ticket for this misbehaviour on
x86_64 (in our or Mike's repo -- up to you).

Please, drop a comment that cycle with
| for name, comp in pairs({min = min, max = max}) do
brokes the semantics of some tests (as we discussed offline), so to be
consistent between each other use the copy-paste approach.

IINM, jit is already on, so there is no need in this line.

It will be nice to add 'expected: ...' comment for all tests, not really
obvious to me.
