This is the best we can do with the current ARM instruction set. Although notionally the ARM FPA does support other rounding modes, the selection is done by encoding the desired mode into the instruction, rather than using a separate control register. There is no way to change rounding modes at runtime: it can only be done by recompiling the program. Clearly this is a fairly losing scheme, and we will be dropping it along with the rest of the historical ARM floating-point baggage at some point in the fairly near future. But, right now, we're stuck with it and there is nothing we can change in glibc that will improve matters. p. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
