Apologies for the trouble.
The main difference between IEEE and non-IEEE is whether 0 * infinity = 0 or
NaN. IEEE makes it mean NaN. DX9 behavior is 0. I added a flag to be used by
st/nine to enable the DX9 behavior optionally, but leave the IEEE behavior for
GLSL. (There was some additional desire to expose that in a GL ext for WINE to
use, but it got shot down pretty quickly.)
Perhaps there are other changes from using the IEEE instruction variants, e.g.
denorms, which would be undesirable. I was never too familiar with the R600
ISA.</pre>
