I'm guessing that fmod and drem that specify the rounding mode to be
used in the calculation might fall under this category. Probably best
to assume they're both ATTR_MATHFN_FPROUNDING_ERRNO until a real IEEE
expert can cast an authorative opinion. Are fmod and drem independent
of the current FP rounding mode?
