C11 semantics for excess precision (from N1531) are that an implicit conversion (from the usual arithmetic conversions, not by assignment) from integer to floating point has a result in the corresponding evaluation format of that floating-point type, so possibly with excess precision (whereas a cast or conversion by assignment from integer to floating point must produce a value without excess range or precision, as always). This patch makes GCC support those semantics if flag_isoc11 (which in turn means that conditional expressions need to support generating a result with excess precision even if neither operand had excess precision).
C99 is less than entirely clear in this regard, but my reading as outlined at <https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-11/msg00105.html> is that the results of conversions from integer to floating-point types are always expected to be representable in the target type without excess precision, and this patch conservatively keeps these semantics for pre-C11 (i.e. if an older standard is explicitly selected). Bootstrapped with no regressions on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.
