+Bit accurate Transcendental support
+This is a long term goal.

+Currently we don't offer bit accurate transcendental instructions.

+Reciprocal and reciprocal square root instructions have a fairly large range for their precision support.

+These are currently implemented with float divisions to ensure all of the CPU backends match results and have same unit test results.

+

+These precision differences have the fun quirk that usually something like the reciprocal of 1.0f results in a result that isn't 1.0f even.

+

+We should have support for a few modes once this gets worked on.

+1) Bit accurate representation that matches *SOME* known hardware

+2) Most accurate representation (What we have now)

+3) Accuracy that falls within x86 precision requirements, but doesn't match any known hardware (In case any device supports less accurate results that are still within x86 spec)
