Oh, I see. Basically my trick is convoluted `-ffloat-store`.

I finally took myself by the hand and convinced me with a simple code:

```
// gcc -m32 -fexcess-precision=fast -O2 t.c
#include <inttypes.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

[[gnu::noipa]] void test(uint64_t v, double x, double y) {
  const double y2 = x + 1.0;
  if (y != y2)
    printf("error %" PRIu64 " %.17g %a\n", v, x, x);
  else
    printf("ok %" PRIu64 " %.17g %a\n", v, x, x);
}

void main() {

  uint64_t kSamplesPerRange = 4000, start = 0, stop = 9218868437227405311;
  uint64_t step = (stop / kSamplesPerRange);
  for (uint64_t value_bits = start; value_bits <= stop; value_bits += step) {
    double value;
    memcpy(&value, &value_bits, sizeof value);
    double x = value;
    double y = x + 1.0;

    test(value_bits, x, y);
  }
}
```

please accept my apologies for the noise.
