[Bug ports/2749] powerpc32 does not build --without-fp


------- Additional Comments From sjmunroe at us dot ibm dot com  2006-08-04 22:12 -------
Refreshed the patch set.

With this patch set powerpc32 -with-fp builds clean and passes all the float and
double tests.

The long double tests still fail. The consensus is that IBM Extended requires a
fussed multiple add for correct results and this not currently available to
soft-fp. 

Unless someelse voluteers for this exciting opportunity I will take a crack at a
writing fmadd/fmsub soft-fp routines and work with David Edelsohn to get the
requires gcc updates.
