This was present in the original draft of SRFI 77, but removed during
the discussion period.  You'll find a statement to that effect in the
"Revision History" section on

http://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-77/srfi-77.html

Will Clinger made the actual change, but I assume it was made in
response to the general call to pare down the set of operations on
flonums, many of which had only marginal value.
