* g77.texi (Floating-point Exception Handling): Adjust
for turning on floating-point exceptions
(@pxref{Floating-point Exception Handling}).
The control word could be set to double precision by
-replacing the @code{__setfpucw} call with one like this:
+replacing the @code{__setfpucw} call or the @code{_FPU_SETCW} macro with one like this:
@smallexample
- __setfpucw ((_FPU_DEFAULT & ~_FPU_EXTENDED) | _FPU_DOUBLE);
+@{
+ fpu_control_t cw = (_FPU_DEFAULT & ~_FPU_EXTENDED) | _FPU_DOUBLE;
+ _FPU_SETCW(cw);
+@}
@end smallexample
