I think that, if we had some help from the compiler, it ought to be possible to implement FLT_EVAL_METHOD == 2 for i386, and that's probably the closest to the actual hardware implementation. Something similar to Kahan's PARANOIA ought to be able to distinguish the various methods and thereby serve as a regression test. -GAWollman To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-standards" in the body of the message
