  18 Berkeley SoftFloat is a software implementation of binary floating-point that
  19 conforms to the IEEE Standard for Floating-Point Arithmetic.
  20 SoftFloat is distributed in the form of C source code.
  21 Building the SoftFloat sources generates a library file (typically
  22 <CODE>softfloat.a</CODE> or <CODE>libsoftfloat.a</CODE>) containing the
  23 floating-point subroutines.
