I think GCC should do it.
Hello GCC,
Greetings from Clang community! :-) I implemented _Float16 support in Clang.
On the Clang mailing list the request was made if we could rebrand __fp16 to a

for a few different reasons, and learned that the m

Thanks, my understanding is that we are not inten

Thanks for providing that information!
