The "struct exception" type uses doubles, so this has to be HUGE_VAL.

Even with my two patches, we still have extendsfdf2 and truncdfsf2 
calls, but those will be much harder to get rid of, as we can't change 
struct exception without breaking matherr.  All of the other soft-float 
calls are gone though.
