A small package FENV has been added to the SVN. The package allows (on supported architectures) to change the rounding mode of the floating point system or to change precision of the calculations. The package has been tested on x86 and x86_64 processors under Linux.
Precision change is currently available only for x86/x86_64 architecture and is effective only when the computations are carried by the x87 FPU. Rounding mode change depends on the implementation of the C99 function fesetround(). The developers would welcome any information regarding how the package behaves under Windows.
