(in case anyone reading doesn't know: FMA = Fused Multiply and Add, as in a*b+c, an operation on 3 values, which increases precision by incurring rounding error once instead of twice)

I'm not an expert on this, but for my own code I've been meaning to better understand the discussion here [1], which suggests that there ARE ways of getting FMAs, without the sloppiness of fast-math.
