Folks,
what is the current status of -ffast-math for gcc4 under cygwin.
I tried to use it for some numerical C code and get the following link
errors:

Perhaps a few more details about what you're doing, a simple
reproducible
testcase, what kind of command-lines you're using, etc. etc... might
help.
cheers,

Dave,
I was just shooting into the dark expecting more like a yes/no wrt use
of -ffast-math. Thx for responding!
I'm linking with gfortran (v4.5 or v4.3.4) (because the C code calls a
lot of fortran under the hood).
This is how I compile & link:
gcc-4 -c -D_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED=1 -D_ALL_SOURCE -D_POSIX_SOURCE \
-std=c99 -Wall -Wshadow -Wreturn-type -Wunused \
-Wuninitialized -Wformat -Wunused-function -Wunused-macros
-Wunused-label -Wredundant-decls -fno-leading-underscore -O3 \
-fno-strict-aliasing -Winline -fexpensive-optimizations \
-finline-functions -finline-limit=500000 -fstrength-reduce -fgcse \
-fgcse-lm -fgcse-sm -funroll-loops -fforce-addr -fomit-frame-pointer \
-ftree-vectorize -mfpmath=sse -msse3 -ffast-math \
-march=pentium4 -pipe -fbounds-check -Wextra -Winit-self \

Compiling/linking your example gives:
math.c: In function ‘main’:
math.c:4: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘atof’
math.c:5: warning: unused variable ‘d’
math.c:3: warning: unused parameter ‘argc’
math.o:math.c:(.text+0x30): undefined reference to `_f_exp'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
Do you where this gobble stuff ‘ comes from, btw?
H.
Dave,
I just found the culprit!
It's -fno-leading-underscore.
Have to see whether I can live without it!
Thx. again
