Like for infinity, there isn't just a single NaN. The sign bit may be of interest and, going beyond infinity, whether the value is quiet or signalling may be even more relevant to be able to encode. Note that an anomaly with x86'es double extended precision NaN values gets taken care of at the same time: For all other formats a positive value with all mantissa bits set was used, while here a negative value with all non-significant mantissa bits clear was chose for an unknown reason. For m68k, since I don't know their X_PRECISION floating point value layout, a warning gets issued if any of the new flavors was attempted to be encoded that way. However likely it may be that, given that the code lives in a source file supposedly implementing IEEE-compliant formats, the bit patterns of the individual words match x86'es, I didn't want to guess so. And my very, very old paper doc doesn't even mention floating point formats other than single and double.
README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
