I have now tested the -ieee flag. So this is a documentation error, because the vital option is not mentioned in the host specific note.

I have added a suggested documentation change to PR16787. It would be good if someone could fix the documentation.

It is more likely to be fixed if a bug report is filed. Or you could try submitting a formal patch to the gcc-patches list, but this is much more work, and requires follow up.
There is already a bug report, PR 16787.

But the way to compile on Tru64 is to use -ieee so that we get IEEE floating points with NANs.
