We're currently preventing libcall simplification for callsites marked strictfp. The plan has been for front ends to mark all calls as strictfp so that they don't need to identify math library calls. I could probably be convinced that this is not necessary. Arguably, simplifyLibCalls could look at the callee's function attributes instead. @kpn has been considering whether this behavior should be relaxed.

It means that these calls do not need to be transformed and they may be processes as any other intrinsic.

As @andrew.w.kaylor pointed out, all function calls need to have `strictfp` attribute, it is now attached to all calls in the inlined function.
