Updated the bugzilla
http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2749 with refreshed
patches for gcc, libc and ports.
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.
Creating fmadd/fmsub soft-fp routines is the next task.
