I'd like to mention that I too was bit by this one on Debian. I don't have a 32-bit development environment installed; why would I? I'm building primarily for myself, and if I did have to target a 32-bit environment, I'd likely have to mess with more stuff then just the compiler. If you can't find

Decimal Floating-Point

2005-02-26 Thread David Starner
The Wiki only mentions the C front-end. Is this going to require any back-end changes? Is there going to be any work done to make this work well with Ada (which already has decimal floating point), to make decimal floating-point values be passable between C and Ada functions?
