Cygwin floating point control

Cygwin floating point control

[Jochen Küpper]

The following program does not link on Cygwin
,----
| #include <ieeefp.h>
| 
| int main() 
| {
|     return(fgetsticky());
| }
`----
due to fpgetsticky beeing unresolved.

fpgetsticky is declared in /usr/include/ieeefp.h, but I cannot find
any library it is defined in.  A search on the Cywin site and at
google didn't turn up anything for fpgetsticky on Cygwin. (?)

Is it implemented?  If so, where?  If not, is there any substitute I
should be using?

Greetings,
Jochen

PS: It would be nice if you could cc me.

I use this 'home spun' header that I 'hacked' from the BSD sources

Not really sure if it is 100% right or if the license allows this to be
used in Cygwin 'proper' but ... it seems to work for me
