I thought you confirmed that Embedded N32&N64 where also 128bit long doubles, but I was mistaken. And I ventured that 064 would have better precision long doubles.

I'll look at this when the most urgent problems are fixed. The unwinder seems a bit shaky for instance :-(. Thanks Daniel, hopefully I'll be able to send a patch late tonight or tomorrow morning. -- Joel
