indeed if I put the return value of fesetround into "int ret":

zimmerma@thym:~/svn/tbd/20/src/binary64$ ./a.out
x=0x0.0000000000001p-1022
FE_TONEAREST:  y=0x0p+0 ret=0
FE_TOWARDZERO: y=0x0p+0 ret=22
FE_UPWARD:     y=0x0p+0 ret=22
FE_DOWNWARD:   y=0x0p+0 ret=22

thus only FE_TONEAREST is supported on x86_64.

Is there some cfarm machine (https://portal.cfarm.net/machines/list/)
where fenv is supported?
