I created a branch for Intel BID library at

svn://gcc.gnu.org/svn/gcc/branches/libbid

and synced it with mainline at revision 126175. The only differences
are a new top level directory, libbid which contains Intel BID
library, and a libgcc2 patch I am enclosing it here. I tested it on
Linux/ia32 and Linux/x86-64 with default languages. It only affects
Linux/ia32 and Linux/x86-64 since they are the only targets which
use BID for DFP. Could maintainers for x86, libgcc and build machinery
take a look at the libbid branch?

As far as x86 is concerned, this patch is OK*.

* All bugs that broke bootstrap were fixed during initial development, and all special features (i.e. __float128) have been addressed at that time too. _IF_ there are any other minor problems, they will be addressed during Stage 2. That said, the patch should be ready for prime time.

BTW: I'd like to nominate H.J. for a (co-)maintainer of a DFP library.

Thanks,
Uros.
