This sounds like the users want intrinsics to map *directly* to the 
corresponding instruction. If that's the case such users should use inline 
assembly, IMHO. If you compile a TU with -ffast-math then *all* floating-point 
operations are affected. Yes, more control over where to use fast-math and the 
ability to mix fast-math and no-fast-math without risking ODR violations would 
be great. But that's a larger issue, and one that would ideally be solved in 
WG14/WG21.

FWIW, this is what I'd do, i.e. turn off fast-math for the function in 
question:
