still bad :/

float convert( unsigned in )
{
        float f;
        __builtin_memcpy( &f, &in, sizeof( in ) );
        return f;
}

unsigned short load( void* p )
{
        unsigned short v;
        __builtin_memcpy( &v, p, sizeof( v ) );
        return v;
}

convert:
        movl    %edi, -4(%rsp)
        movss   -4(%rsp), %xmm1
        movaps  %xmm1, %xmm0
        ret

load:
        movzwl  (%rdi), %eax
        movw    %ax, -2(%rsp)
        movzwl  %ax, %eax
        ret
