Sorry, I see your "need to be recompiled" was about old -mfp64 binaries, 
which indeed we don't need to care about.  But we *do* need to ensure 
incompatibilities between o32-fp32 and o32-fp64 binaries / shared 
libraries are detected, which means doing similar things to Maciej's patch 
to check ELF flags, distinguish libraries in ldconfig and arguably use a 
different dynamic linker name (or two such names, if o32-fp64 is supported 
with both NaN variants).  (New dynamic linker names mean changes to specs 
in GCC, but those changes should be small and so fine even in development 
stage 3.)
