   7 Berkeley SoftFloat is a software implementation of binary floating-point
   8 that conforms to the IEEE Standard for Floating-Point Arithmetic.  SoftFloat
   9 is distributed in the form of C source code.  Building the SoftFloat sources
  10 generates a library file (typically "softfloat.a" or "libsoftfloat.a")
