Here's the patch we have in our internal tree, applied to gdb HEAD or
thereabouts.  (We first found the problem with soft-float doubles on
32-bit targets.)  It passes tests here; I'd be curious to hear if it
works for you as well.

If it does, maybe somebody will be so kind as to approve it in this
thread rather than waiting for a resubmit. :)
