I saw a previous discussion about rounding mode for OCaml (in 2000).

As anyone implemented the functions to change the rounding mode for 
floating point from OCaml (possibly as a patch to add primitives and 
save a C function call) ?

This is necessary to implement interval arithmetic ...

Note: I found the assembly code for 6 architectures on the web:
http://www-anp.lip6.fr/cadna/Rounding_mode_Dir/Accueil.php

 From this, it would be easy to add it in OCaml ?
