You keep saying this, but is it true? :-)
You can't take the address of a function's return value, but you can
take the address of a dereference. Of course using
&builtin_type_double in m68k_gdbarch_init won't work since
current_gdbarch is NULL then. But we should be able to save
builtin_type (gdbarch)->builtin_double if we wanted to, I think.
