As explained in codingconventions.html, soft-fp is imported from glibc. For files that come from glibc, you can only copy in the glibc versions, unchanged. Thus, you should submit this fix to libc-alpha. You'll need to explain what the differences in struct layout actually are. In my view, rather than adding any __MINGW32__ conditionals in the header, you should instead have an _FP_STRUCT_LAYOUT macro that sfp-machine.h can define, and that soft-fp.h defines to empty if not defined in sfp-machine.h. That way quad.h can use _FP_STRUCT_LAYOUT and you avoid any conditionals on __MINGW32__ in any of the core soft-fp code. I would have expected any struct layout issue to apply to the other headers (single.h, double.h, extended.h) just as to quad.h, so if you're only changing one header you'll need to explain why the issue doesn't affect the others. -- Joseph S.
