You don't say which paragraph of G.5.1 you are thinking of - paragraph 2 is of course irrelevant (GCC doesn't implement _Imaginary and the imaginary type specifications in that informative annex are in direct conflict with the normative parts of the standard and of doubtful value to implement) while GCC versions before 4.0 don't make any attempt to implement the algorithm of paragraph 6 (which itself has been criticised, and only gets used by 4.x with -std=c99). -- Joseph S.
