Well, as long as it is a valid combination (like if you have a
processor without SSE2 but only SSE and still want to use SSE math
for floats) we should make sure we don't ICE during expansion.  Which
is the point of this torture - detect ICEs for all those weird
combinations.  But you are right that for at least x86_64 an extra
combination with -mfpmath=387 could be useful ;)

So I added

       { -O0 -mfpmath=387 } \
       { -O0 -mfpmath=387 -ffast-math } \
       { -O2 -mfpmath=387 } \
       { -O2 -mfpmath=387 -ffast-math } \

(is there a way to generate the combinations automatically with tcl?)

Richard.
