+/* The floating-point expression evaluation method. The precise
+ definitions of these values are generalised to include support for
+ the interchange and extended types defined in ISO/IEC TS 18661-3.
+ Prior to this (for C99/C11) the definitions were:
+
+ -1 indeterminate
+ 0 evaluate all operations and constants just to the range and
+ precision of the type
+ 1 evaluate operations and constants of type float and double
+ to the range and precision of the double type, evaluate
+ long double operations and constants to the range and
+ precision of the long double type
+ 2 evaluate all operations and constants to the range and
+ precision of the long double type
+
+ The TS 18661-3 definitions are:
+
+ -1 indeterminate
+ 0 evaluate all operations and constants, whose semantic type has
+ at most the range and precision of float, to the range and
+ precision of float; evaluate all other operations and constants
+ to the range and precision of the semantic type.
+ 1 evaluate all operations and constants, whose semantic type has
+ at most the range and precision of double, to the range and
+ precision of double; evaluate all other operations and constants
+ to the range and precision of the semantic type.
+ 2 evaluate all operations and constants, whose semantic type has
+ at most the range and precision of long double, to the range and
+ precision of long double; evaluate all other operations and
+ constants to the range and precision of the semantic type.
+ N where _FloatN is a supported interchange floating type
+ evaluate all operations and constants, whose semantic type has
+ at most the range and precision of the _FloatN type, to the
+ range and precision of the _FloatN type; evaluate all other
+ operations and constants to the range and precision of the
+ semantic type.
+ N + 1, where _FloatNx is a supported extended floating type
+ evaluate operations and constants, whose semantic type has at
+ most the range and precision of the _FloatNx type, to the range
+ and precision of the _FloatNx type; evaluate all other
+ operations and constants to the range and precision of the
+ semantic type.
+
+ The compiler predefines two macros:
+
+ __FLT_EVAL_METHOD__
+ Which, depending on the value given for
+ -fpermitted-flt-eval-methods, may be limited to only those values
+ for FLT_EVAL_METHOD defined in C99/C11.
+
+ __FLT_EVAL_METHOD_TS_18661_3__
+ Which always permits the values for FLT_EVAL_METHOD defined in
+ ISO/IEC TS 18661-3.
+
+ Here we want to use __FLT_EVAL_METHOD__, unless
+ __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_TYPES_EXT__ is defined, in which case the user
+ is specifically asking for the ISO/IEC TS 18661-3 types, so we use
+ __FLT_EVAL_METHOD_TS_18661_3__.
??? This ought to change with the setting of the fp control word;
the value provided by the compiler assumes the widest setting. */
