thanks for the patches.

i think optimizing |x|<1 is not very important.

c99 allowed 2 fenv behaviours, we (and fdlibm) choose
one, c2x went with the other: no inexact exception is
allowed.

so if i touch this code i would rewrite it with int
arithmetics (which will be slower on most hard float
targets than the current code anyway)
