The former is a directory with support for IEEE quad long double (ldbl-128ibm would be for IBM 2xdouble long double format), the latter contains wrappers around dbl-64 and ldbl-128* functions so that both sizeof (double) == sizeof (long double) and sizeof (double) < sizeof (long double) is supported. > I also see an opportunity to improve the double implementations for > 64-bit. Should we add dbl-64-64(sp?) where the code assumes 64-bit > registers for the (long) integer bit manipulation. This should be > generally useful beyond powerpc64. That should be dbl-64/wordsize-64 subdir instead IMHO. Jakub
