fenv.h is implemented. The issue is that feenableexcept is not part of
the standard for fenv.h; it's an extension added by glibc for turning
on trapping exceptions. This usage is non-portable (as far as I know,
many machines don't support trapping exceptions) and I've never seen a
program actually making use of them. It looks like spandsp is just
using this function in its test suite, probably to test some
exception-relted behavior. I think this should be fixed upstream,
since it won't work on other non-GNU systems either.
