That's good to know. Thank you.

If you are here I have one more somewhat related question: is IEEE binary128
arithmetic really not supported under ARMv7 or, like in the case above, it is
supported, but not under one of common names (__float128/_Float128) ?

And if it is not supported then why? 
If I had to peek one 32-bit architecture to support then it certainly would be
ARMv7, the most used 32-bit architecture in the world that probably outsells
the next one by order of magnitude.
