Hi folks!

Is there a reason why fegetexceptflag()
(sysdeps/powerpc/fpu/fgetexcptflg.c) does not ignore exceptions not in
`excepts'?  We're completely disregarding the `excepts' argument.

Why should it? It would just waste CPU time.

Cuz the other ports do it? For some reason I thought fegetexceptflag() had to only return the exceptions turned on in `excepts'.
