[LLVMdev] creating 80/128bit FP constants?

[Shuxin Yang]

There are example in unittests/ADT/APFloatTest.cpp

Create 80-bit FP (on x8664, it is corresponding to "long double" in C/C++):

       APFloat(APFloat::x87DoubleExtended, "0xf.fffffffp+28");

Create 128-bit:
      I don't know if llvm have run-time lib support for 
quadruple-precision FP arithmetic.
