 Thanks for adding it to Makefile.am BTW!

 The result is the same in both cases:

% ./test_round
... licence snipped ...

  Default style synchronized to hardware mode:
    hardware rounding mode: to nearest
    hardware rounding mode: downward
    hardware rounding mode: upward
    hardware rounding mode: toward zero
  Default style NOT synchronized to hardware mode:
    hardware rounding mode: to nearest
    hardware rounding mode: downward
    hardware rounding mode: upward
    hardware rounding mode: toward zero

.... 1128 tests succeeded
no errors detected

So glibc (version 2.3.6) seems to be ok too.

 I didn't test under x86 (this was under amd64) but can also rebuild LMI in
chroot if you think it's going to be useful. From what I can see (from a
couple of simple tests I did with 32 bit compiler) it should work there
too.
