Thanks for finding fesetprec as well. It's a shame this isn't standard C. Oh well; maybe for C201X. I think I'd prefer to stick with the inline assembly, since it seems that there's very little to do to make this just work. Next problem: when compiling with suncc, how do I detect (in the configure script) (1) that I'm using suncc, and (2) whether the hardware is x86 or not (preferably excluding the case of x86-64). For gcc, configure.in is using: if test -n "`$CC -dM -E - </dev/null | grep i386`" to detect whether we're on x86. I guess it's too much to hope for that this works for suncc as well. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5792> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
