If they are not completely supported, the libc shouldn't generate them (to avoid FPE signals when results of libc functions are used in input of other operations). > There's no way to fix this without using -mieee, and for some reason > I can't remember at the moment the GCC maintainers do not want that > to be the default.

Perhaps things like -std=c99 should imply -mieee then, if no change is done in glibc (and __STDC__ shouldn't be defined if no such option is used). -- Vincent Lefèvre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> - 100% validated (X)HTML - Acorn Risc PC, Yellow Pig 17, Championnat International des Jeux Mathématiques et Logiques, TETRHEX, etc. Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / SPACES project at LORIA -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
