Since soft-fp provides its own version of the conversion routines the
ones in libgcc2.c are disabled by setting LIB2FUNCS_EXCLUDE.  Thew new
conversion routines are also disabled but not through
LIB2FUNCS_EXCLUDE.  Updating LIB2FUNCS_EXCLUDE would have required
touching too many backends at this point.  So instead the new routines
are all disabled by default for now.  If you want them to be included
you need to set LIB2FUNCS_OPT in the backend.
