I can't find that anywhere in ISO C or POSIX.  What exactly are you
quoting?  ISO C doesn't tie math_errhandling to __STDC_IEC_559__.

There's no requirement in ISO C or POSIX for an implementation to let
users affect the value of math_errhandling, at compile time or
otherwise.  (And POSIX isn't directly relevant; this is all defined by
ISO C.  There might be something in POSIX that goes beyond the ISO C
requirements.)

gcc has "-f[no-]fast-math" and "-f[no-]math-errno" options that can
affect the value of math_errhandling.

A conforming implementation could set math_errhandling to
(MATH_ERRNO|MATH_ERREXCEPT) and not provide a way to change it.
