I don't know what they stand for (the naming convention probably 
originates from fdlibm, or at least much of the code does), but e_* 
functions have a w_* wrapper for error handling round the __ieee754_* 
function in the e_* file (some have since eliminated the use of wrappers 
in some cases) and s_* functions have an implementation with no wrappers 
that does any required error handling itself.
