The new generic fmod removes the wrapper since it sets errno when needed -
ie. the wrapper is unnecessary overhead. We must keep using the wrapper in
implementations that don't set errno of course.

Applications never call __ieee754_fmod, so the right comparison is between
the generic fmod without the wrapper and the x87 fmod with the wrapper.

Cheers,
Wilco
