We don't implement imprecise FP exceptions and using store_current
which sets SRR1 to the *previous* instruction never makes sense
for these. So let's be truthful and make them precise, which is
allowed by the architecture.

I don't see any store_correct in the altered code, so the description
doesn't quite make sense to me.

Also, this appears to be an unrelated change.

The existing program check default to store_current. We want
store_next.

The labels are misnamed, I fix that in a subsequent patch.
store_current means use the "current" ctx->nip which is usually
pointing to the *next* instruction ;-) (though not always).

It's all very messy and fixing that is  what a susequent patch in the
series does.
