Description

Interval Arithmetic Library has only compile time check of IEEE-754 rounding modes support. Unfortunately it is insufficient for instance when a program is running under Valgrind.

It is quite simple and inexpensive to add some runtime check like the one used in CGAL ([www.cgal.org]) CGAL::Interval_nt::Test_runtime_rounding_modes.
