There is, via rtx_costs. In fact that was my first approach, with the
following in rs6000_rtx_costs, but this potentially affects other
areas of the compiler.
case SET:
if (GET_MODE (SET_DEST (x)) == TFmode
&& !TARGET_IEEEQUAD
&& TARGET_HARD_FLOAT
&& (TARGET_FPRS || TARGET_E500_DOUBLE)
&& TARGET_LONG_DOUBLE_128)
/* This hack is to persuade lower_subreg to not lower
TFmode regs to DImode. */
*total = COSTS_N_INSNS (2) - 1;
break;
