Although permitted by C11, the proposed C bindings to IEEE 754-2008 remove the permission to raise this exception (these are functions with fully-defined, always-exact floating-point results that do not depend on the current rounding mode), and the glibc versions should also stop raising it (which for the generic C versions looks like it will just be a matter of removing code that's there for the sole purpose of raising this exception). On x86_64, trunc has the same issue for long double only, not float or double. -- Configure bugmail: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
