Not quite after every operation:

  y = x * a + b;

With -fexcess-precision=standard, the 80-bit result of the multiplication will be used in the addition. With -ffloat-store, a 64-bit store and reload will take place between the two operations, forcing excess fraction bits to be discarded.

Another option is to set the Precision Control field in the x87 control word to 53-bit precision; that pretty much eliminates double rounding, but still uses the extended exponent range (only matters in overflow and underflow cases). And it may confuse libc's carefully crafted floating-point functions.
