+Taken from http://sources.redhat.com/ml/crossgcc/2004-02/msg00104.html
+Author: addsub@eyou.com
+Target: ARM
+
+Fixes http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/gcc/gcc/testsuite/gcc.c-torture/execute/920501-8.c
+and makes printf("%f", 1.0) work.

+ It ... fixes the 'printf("%f\n", 0.5); prints 0.000000' and general 'floating point
+ is broken' on my big-endian hardfloat FPA ARM platform. ...
+ It's definitely needed for hardfloat. So I'd think it's needed for
+ big-endian systems in any case, and for VFP on little-endian systems
+ too. Someone would have to verify that though.

+ I just had a look at glibc-20040830, and [this patch] is still needed and useful
+ for this version. glibc-20040830 out-of-the-box still contains the
+ following wrong assumptions:
+ - sysdeps/arm/bits/endian.h: float word order is big endian (which it is
+ not on vfp systems)
+ - sysdeps/arm/gmp-mparam.h: IEEE doubles are mixed endian (which they
+ are not on big endian systems, neither on vfp systems)
+ - sysdeps/arm/ieee754.h: IEEE doubles are in little endian byte order
+ (which they are not on big endian systems)
+ [This patch] seems the right solution for all of these issues.

+ It's even needed for glibc CVS, AFAICS.
+ The patch hunk which modifies glibc.new/sysdeps/arm/bits/endian.h
+ (currently at version 1.4) is only needed for proper VFP operation.
+ But the hunk which modifies sysdeps/arm/gmp-mparam.h, and the hunk
+ that deletes sysdeps/arm/ieee754.h (yes, this IS correct), are needed
+ for proper operation of *any* FP model on big endian ARM.

+
+Hi, Dan, This is a patch I applied to my glibc-2.3.2, then my softfloat
+toolchain can printf("%f\n",1.0). So you may have a try of this
