Steve Dower added the comment:

It should be defaulting to precise mode, but maybe ICC has a different default?

I wrote on #24973:

It's not a safe 3.5 change now, but compiling with /fp:fast by default and 
using #pragma float_control(precise, push)/#pragma float_control(pop) around 
that section may be an option for 3.6, if the benchmarks show some value in it. 
Either way, the pragma is probably the better way to require particular 
behaviour for that section of code, rather than changing a global option.
