Not that simple (e.g., C99 doesn't *require* it; but it has a pile of
specified IEEE behaviors a conforming C99 compiler can choose to
support (or not), along with a preprocessor symbol those that do so
choose can #define to advertise

C99 and Fortran 2003 have IEEE arithmetic. If CPython could be compiled
with a C99 compiler, would it also have IEEE arithmetic? Do Python

The same line works as expected on Linux and Solaris with python 2.3.4.
Could anybody
