Thanks to Ian for the final approval, thanks to FX for creating the 
library and integrating it in gfortran/libgfortran; thanks to all who 
gave comments, suggestions or tested the patch.

PS: As Toon has mentioned that he won't use REAL(16) in meteorology as 
single precision is enough. In my field of electronic structure 
computation, single precision is usually not seen as precise enough - 
and thus only sometimes used - but double precision is regarded as 
precise enough. Hence, I probably won't use REAL(16) heavily either. 
However, now and then I probably will do - as I did before with REAL(10).
