Don't you need
rnd = fpsetround(FP_RN); /* Set to known rounding mode */
result = rint(x);
fpsetround(rnd); /* Reset to whatever the user had */
to ensure that rint() rounds to an expected value.
int main(void) {
double u, v, x;
x = 0.5;
fpsetround(FP_RM);
u = round(x);
fpsetround(FP_RP);
v = round(x);
/* Does u equal v ? */
}
BTW, thanks for working on this issue.
