--- Comment #4 from g.peterhoff@t-online.de ---
That is precisely the design error of C/C++/etc. There should be no
float/double/long double/__float128/etc, but *only* floatN_t. Then there
wouldn't be these discrepancies (if necessary you have to emulate by SW).
But that's just my humble opinion ... and now we have to face reality and m=
ake
the best of it.=20
One step might be to put std::float128_t and __float128 on a common/uniform
code base :-)
