I also do see that, but I fail to understand why that duplication: the
first '<float:32>' and the second one (after the '<float:32> *') are the
same node, or aren't they?

(With that expectedly being any 'NULL_TREE's converted to
'error_mark_node' in 'gcc/tree-streamer.c:record_common_node'.)

ACK.

(Maybe that's indeed better than my "hamfisted" patch.) ;-)
But it still reads a bit like a workaround (explicitly setting only
'dfloat*_ptr_type_node' here, leaving the actual 'dfloat*_type_node'
untouched (and then later on implicitly converted to 'error_mark_node' as
mentioned).
I guess we need somebody with more experience to review this.
