We should be generating it from enquire. I have enquire modifications that I posted about a year ago for this. I had posted this to the egcs list get some feedback because I didn't know what to do with the signalling non-signalling nan stuff -- I basically guessed at that part, but I didn't care too much at the time since I wasn't using that part of numeric_limits<>. I have since found out what these are (the intel assembly documention explains these nicely), but I haven't touched this <limits> stuff since then, and these problems still have to be addressed. My approach was to have an input file and have enquire generate a sed script that could be used to create a final <limits> header. This way I didn't have to embed the whole text or needlessly complicate enquire. My enquire patch and the <limits> input file are still at: http://www.cygnus.com/ml/egcs/1998-Feb/0938.html It seems that nobody noticed or was interested at the time -- with either some feedback or some help, this could be polished up for inclusion without too much work.
