There's ongoing work to support code that accesses the floating point environment (see http://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#constrained-floating-point-intrinsics).  There isn't any way to turn it on in clang yet, though.  And until that's implemented, LLVM can trigger arbitrary floating-point exceptions anywhere in your code, so there's no point to trying to generate a "quiet" compare.
