<<Of course the whole issue here is the -ffast-math option, which indeed
gives up on such accuracy requirements to achieve better speed, so
your comment is not relevant here. Think of this as the Ada relaxed math mode.

Well the question is whether the built-in routines can be used in normal
mode. I would say that it makes sense to say yes on this. After all, IEEE
has no notion of required accuracy for elementary functions in the first
place.
