Re: after-rounding tininess detection and directed rounding



| Correct, a recent change, perhaps because only one flavor of 754R
| decimal hardware exists at present.     Since both kinds of binary 
| hardware currently exist, choosing one or the other is not politically
| feasible for binary in normal mode.      

This isn't really relevant to the discussion, but I'm curious anyway:
is there a list somewhere of the major architectures showing whether
they detect tininess before or after rounding? (For binary, of course.)
