The same thing is true for reading FPCR as well, so I think the flag
should suppress the FLOAT_MODE_P check, instead of fixing up the flags
afterwards.

I'm struggling to think of a good name though.  How about adding
FLAG_AUTO_FP and making the FLOAT_MODE_P check dependent on FLAG_AUTO_FP
being set?

We could leave FLAG_AUTO_FP out of FLAG_ALL, since FLAG_ALL already
includes FLAG_FP.  Including it in FLAG_ALL wouldn't do no any harm
though.

Thanks,
Richard
