But I thought the point of the test was to verify that the compiler's understanding of existence of subnormal values was consistent with the processor. If the processor is in a mode supporting such values, the exceptions should be masked. That is, the present test should pass unconditionally, if it doesn't pass that indicates a bug (which might be appropriate for XFAILing). -- Joseph S. Myers [email protected]
