I think this is taken care of by checking for the #define
_FPU_EXTENDED  before any rounding macros would be #defined. At least
it seems to work on XP 64 bit. But I unfortunately don't know if Win 7
and/or the latest VS versions changed something related to the #define
 _FPU_EXTENDED making the check for it break.
