I'd suggest naming the switch -fcx-limited-range (including in -ffast-math). With due warning in the documentation that even the better algorithm currently implemented doesn't avoid all excess overflow. Given that C99 does expect something better than the naive algorithm it might still make sense to switch to the better algorithm we have as the default (with this flag to control it, and in future hopefully the CX_LIMITED_RANGE pragma) for C. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18902
