rjmccall added a comment.

The reason we call FP contraction "fast" instead of "on" when it's 
cross-statement is because "on" is supposed to be consistent with the C 
language rules, whereas "fast" is stronger.  There's no analogous situation 
with reassociation; I don't think the C standard is likely to ever bless 
reassociative FP math with an expression-local restriction.  Steve, do you 
actually think that would be a useful optimization mode?
