And current `Controlling Floating Point Behavior` includes following description:

I think you should add a subsection to Controlling Floating Point Behavior about the floating-point environment.  You should not mention these builtins there specifically — if you want an example function that reads or modifies the environment, you should use one of the standard APIs like the `FLT_ROUNDS` macro or the `fesetround` function.  You should also add the documentation for these builtins where you've currently got it, and that documentation can cross-reference to Controlling Floating Point Behavior.  Does that make sense?
