Talking about this, I usually do a manual flush to memory in order to have
correct rounding when I need it, I use something like the following :
inline double force_to_mem (double x)
{
asm("" : "=m"(x) : "m"(x));
return x;
}
Unfortunately, this code doesn't work for C++ with GCC 3.0 on x86.
(PR c++/2115, still not analyzed... hint, hint :)
And I have no other idea how to do this reliably for GCC 3...
