Slightly reworked patch. I plan to apply this shortly.
- Use ~(_MCW_PC | _MCW_RC) rather than (_MCW_DN | ...), since this seems more
future proof: there's a possibility that more flags could be added later.
- Put the usual do { ... } while (0) around the _Py_SET_53BIT_PRECISION_END
- Make it clear that we don't care about the return value of the second two
__control87_2 patches.
- Minor style fixes (e.g., spaces around a "bitwise and" ampersand to help
distinguish it from an "address of" ampersand).
I'm not too worried about the fenv_access pragma: it seems that the main thing
it would guard against is compile-time folding and evaluation of expressions,
where the compiler isn't taking the possibility of control word changes into
account. As far as I can tell, we shouldn't really care about this, since at
the time that Python itself is compiled, the control word is likely to be what
we want.
