Thank you for the patch, however, Torbjorn's soft-fp lib never got
incorporated into GCC proper so there's not much we can do with it.

If you would like to do the legwork to get it incorporated, we would
appreciate that considerably.  What you'd have to do is create a
branch in CVS, install ieeelib.c and ieeecvt.c there, and then one at
a time modify ports that use fp-bit.c to use the new library instead.
Once all ports are validated to work with the new library, fp-bit.c
can be removed, and then the branch can be merged.  If you start now
you should be done in good time for inclusion in GCC 3.5.  It is
unfortunately too late for 3.4.
