This patch doesn't really cover my maintenance area (it's just
configury), but I wanted to throw a point in: I assume that MinGW
conforms to the MS ABI? If so, you're making an ABI extension here
because of the way that the x86 backend passes decimal float parameters,
etc.
Do you intend to just make that an undocumented extension for the time
being? What if you wish to later conform to the MS ABI? You'll break
your current ABI.
Cheers, Ben
