not BSD-3-Clause as I wrote in other mail.

These can go away, right?  They are already defined in
newlib/libc/include/sys/fenv.h.

And those you just added to newlib/libc/include/sys/fenv.h in patch 2 of
this set.

Given these are now declared in a shared header, shouldn't these be
added to their own file, newlib/libm/fenv/fe_nomask_env.c parallel
to newlib/libm/fenv/fe_dfl_env.c?

Please drop Cygwin-specific comments.  They just don't make sense in
common newlib code, except in rare cases to explain a difference to
other targets.

Great.

Uh oh.  What about _feinitialise()?  Cygwin calls this function
right from the initial code, but is it really the right thing
to enforce this for all i386/x86_64 targets?

Any idea how we can generate the default environment on the fly
while maintaining backward compat on Cygwin?


Thanks,
