Jim,
 I'm working at seeing if it's worth porting an "old" application of our
own 
to Linux or if it's better to re-develop ...
om my machines (RH7.2) I have ieee754.h as include and not ieeefp.h,
my idea was that maybe someone has already met these functions...and
have them
compiled on ia32-64.
I thank you
Jacky
