IEEE exceptions for math error handling may want to use this flag
for speed while maintaining IEEE arithmetic compatibility.
-This option is not turned on by any @option{-O} option since
-it can result in incorrect output for programs that depend on
-an exact implementation of IEEE or ISO rules/specifications for
-math functions. It may, however, yield faster code for programs
-that do not require the guarantees of these specifications.
