I am not familiar with any of them.  Is there a reason why you expect these
functions to exist?  Is there a standard that specifies them?  I checked
POSIX.1, POSIX.2, ISO C89, ISO C99, and the Single Unix Spec, and see no
definition for these functions.

ISO C99 defines functions fegetround and fesetround, but that may or may not
be what you are looking for.

Likewise.  I've never heard of an ieeefp.h file before.  Why are you looking
for one?
