@njs: to point out that usefulness of this module is not just wishful thinking.
I just used it to locate, up to the line in a Python extension module written
in C, a bug in Sagemath (that has perhaps 20 FPU-using extensions, some of them
as large as numpy

@njs: Fixing this entails switching over from ieeefp to fenv, right? Looks
doable, although not trivial.
It might potentially be useful for various numerics, IMHO.

While fpectl might be a bit rusty, this is a priceless tool in debugging
situations, where one needs to identify components that do something wrong to
FPU, see e.g.
https://github.com/numpy/numpy/issues/9007
and the related
https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket
