It's not a change between the two versions of ACLE.  It's a change 
relative to the early (pre-ACLE) __fp16 specification (or, at least, a 
clarification thereto in email on 12 Aug 2008) that was used as a basis 
for the original implementation of __fp16 in GCC (and that thus is what's 
currently implemented by GCC and tested for in the testsuite).
