[Bug other/14708] description of -ffloat-store in gcc man page incorrect/inaccurate



------- Additional Comments From vincent at vinc17 dot org  2004-03-28 13:53 -------
I don't think that glibc is wrong by defining __STDC_IEC_559__ (computing in an
extended type is allowed by the IEEE-754 standard) as long as FLT_EVAL_METHOD is
correctly set. The real problem is that intermediate results in extended
precision are not converted back to double after a cast or an assignment; this
is required by the C standard, whether __STDC_IEC_559__ is defined or not.
