--- Comment #1 from Joseph Myers <jsm28 at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
None of these are functions (such as fma or sqrt) for which Annex F specifies
correct "inexact" exceptions, and as such correctly raising or not raising
"inexact" for them is outside the goals for correctness of results that I
described at <http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2013-05/msg00132.html>.

If you find bugs that are bugs according to the goals as described there,
please file separate bugs in Bugzilla for each function, and each distinct
issue (missing exceptions / spurious exceptions / inaccurate return value /
missing errno / incorrect errno), after checking the bug isn't already filed;
omnibus bug reports about "various functions" should be avoided, as liable to
lead to a long time when a bug is partly fixed, a state Bugzilla is not good at
tracking.  (A single bug can cover all of the float, double and long double
versions of a function, if they appear to share an issue.)
