I'm not sure modeprefix is better; you could say SF is the prefix of SFmode, for example. Hence my suggestion of a name that makes clear it's the prefix *in float.h*. typeprefix might be a possibility, as it's really a prefix associated with a corresponding type rather than directly with the mode. -- Joseph S.
