For type punning not all compilers warn about it, do you mean we should ask developers to test their code against both Clang and GCC? I think we should have this covered by the CI.

Also I'm seeing build error for Bazel that weren't there before, any idea why? Which headers should be picked for <stddef.h> and similar headers?

@lntue I had to use `+t` here for gcc to be happy.

`sizeof(fexcept_t)` is unknown as it depends on the opaque `fexcept_t` data type.
When I tried to bitcast `*flagp` into an `int` I had a static assert failure from bit_cast implementation that `sizeof(fexcept_t) != sizeof(int)`, it turns out that on my system `sizeof(fexcept_t) != sizeof(int16_t)`.
So for the bitcast to be correct we need to pick the right integral type and then convert it to int.
I've selected `int16_t` and `int32_t` but we may need to provide other integral types depending on `sizeof(fexcept_t)`

Explicit template instantiation cannot be declared within the class itself. It has to be defined [[ https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/class_template#:~:text=An%20explicit%20instantiation%20definition%20forces,entire%20program%2C%20no%20diagnostic%20required. | outside of the class ]].
