That looks weird. If TARGET_80387 and !TARGET_SSE_MATH, then no matter
whether sse2 is enabled or not, normal floating point operations will be
performed in 387 stack and thus FLT_EVAL_METHOD should be 2, not 0.
Do you want to do this because some instructions might be vectorized and
therefore end up in sse registers? For -std=c99 that shouldn't happen,
already the C FE would promote all the arithmetics to be done in long
doubles, and for -std=gnu99 it is acceptable if non-vectorized computations
honor FLT_EVAL_METHOD and vectorized ones don't.
