Comment (by komzpa):

 It became obsolete since we adopted C99 which implies -fexcess-
 precision=standard, which has the same executive effect as --ffloat-store
 but does not define how to do it ("by writing to registers").
 I +1 to remove NUMERICFLAGS.

 If you want to race for raw computation speed try making -ffast-math pass
 tests once again - it did for 2.5.
