See the C standard, 7.6.1 The FENV_ACCESS pragma. The FENV_ACCESS pragma provides a means to inform the implementation when a program might access the floating-point environment to test floating-point status flags or run under non-default floating-point control modes. ... If part of a program tests floating-point status flags, sets floating-point control modes, or runs under non-default mode settings, but was translated with the state for the FENV_ACCESS pragma ‘‘off’’, the behavior is undefined.
