Hello, so from my POV decision is already made. 80-bit support is wanted, and needs to be active for being compatible with C99-math and testsuites and gcc for Windows. This support for 64-bit goes back to 2005, and for 32-bit even much earlier (1998 ?). We provide a way for users asking explicit for 64-bit precision by different object-files, as already noted in this thread (CRT_fp8, CRT_fp10,...). This is the same as for txtmode.o vs. binmode.o, or CRT_noglob.o vs. CRT_glob.o changing behavior.
Nevertheless I would welcome if someone would contribute a good page on our Wiki FAQ-section.
