Well considering x86_64 uses the sse register math by default and not x87, I really doubt that it would be effect that. I would try it on a sane target first like say PPC where you have no excusive precission. Oh the reason is because one checks before the precission is truncated and the next one is after. Look at the example of 323 to give you an idea where this can happen. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20674
