You might try using one of the run-time floating point libraries that
come with GCC.  For example to use gcc/config/fp-bit.c, change the
Makefile to include the following:

LIB2FUNCS_EXTRA = fp-bit.c dp-bit.c

dp-bit.c: $(srcdir)/config/fp-bit.c
        cat $(srcdir)/config/fp-bit.c > dp-bit.c

fp-bit.c: $(srcdir)/config/fp-bit.c
        echo '#define FLOAT' > fp-bit.c
        cat $(srcdir)/config/fp-bit.c >> fp-bit.c
