 |  I welcome anything going into this direction. However, we have also cases
 |  such as:
 |  
 |  #if defined(__i386__) || defined(__amd64__) || defined(__sparc__)
 |  
 |  for some FP variants such as fenv(3). C99-compliant things like tgmath(3)
 |  probably provide more examples.

 Yes, we need __HAVE_FENV etc.
