Yes, and I guess just about all GPUs can do that.
For llvmpipe we'd be vaguely interested in being able to do opencl-style
MAD with undefined rounding as FMA since (x86) cpus never have MAD but
may have FMA. I am not sure actually though this is ok for d3d10 -
interestingly d3d10 has only MAD for SP (saying it's just mul+add but
I'm unsure if that really means skipping the intermediate rounding is
prohibited), but only FMA for DP...
