compiler is allowed to use optimizations that allow reassociation and
transformations that don’t guaranty accuracy.
For example (x+y)+z is transformed into x+(y+z) . Although
mathematically equivalent, these two expressions may not lead to the
same final result due to errors of summation.
Or x/x is transformed into 1.0 but x could be 0.0, INF or NaN. And so
this transformation also may not lead to the same final result.
Setting the eval method 'ffp-eval-method' or via '#pragma clang fp
eval_method' in this mode, doesn’t have any effect.
This patch adds code to warn the user of this.
