It now does.
Table F.3 ISO/IEC 60559 operation to C function
It think it should really say
ISO/IEC 60559 Recommended Operations
because that is the name on Chapter 9 of IEEE 754.
It seems that F.10.1#10, #11 and #13 genuinely refer to Table F.2 but
F.10.1#16 refers to Table F.3, i.e. C23 says
EC 60559 specifies correct rounding for the operations in the F.3
table of operations recommended by IEC 60559
which really is Table F.3.
