I'm not going to worry too much about Alpha, but this is just wrong.  I
recognize that Alpha imposes a significant penalty on IEEE-correctness,
but nevertheless the Java and Go languages require it.  Programmers
shouldn't have to use a special option to get correct behaviour as
defined by the language.  It should be the other way around: they should
have to use a special option to indicate that they don't care about
correct behaviour.

Thanks.
