Joel, do you recall the target in RTEMS which has 4-byte floats only?
(We recently had an issue with it floating point context sizes related to it?
IIRC, it had been a powerpc variant and we were forced to drop it because GCC
doesn't support it.

BTW1: IFAIK, there also exist sh-variants (target tuple *-single*) which don't
have 8byte floats. RTEMS doesn't support them, so I've never tried to build
fortran for then.
