For windows/netware It seems that many of the recent fp definitions
have not been yet copied over there [1] [2], so went mostly by dead
reckoning [3].

[1] Note that many of them are not absolutely necessary for building.
[2] The proper updating involves doing stuff in win32, which I do not have.
[3] As far as I can tell, Windows CE does not really not have long double.

For completeness: it's quite unlikely Perl would build in those environments.

Though with Cray it's less impossible: Perl used to build in C90
UNICOS, in 5.8-ish timeframe.

With IBM, highly unlikely, because there probably never was a UNIXy

And the F float, but that is float (duh), never likely to be
the double, but do it for consistency (we detect IEEE single

The T float and X float are the IEEE 64-bit and 128-bit,
but those were available only on the Alpha.
