Given how late the long double changes went into GCC 4.1, and given that 
there is a clear regression, I'd say that the patches could go in on the 
branch after 4.2 branches, at least up to the 4.2.0 release.  But given 
how long it takes to get soft-fp patches into glibc, perhaps that isn't 
very long.
