Are there any reasons not to put real on the path to removal?
The hardware is deprecated by both Intel and AMD and it seems
like an unnecessary source of confusion.
Don't forget that real is only fp80 on x86. On AArch64(?) it
is/should be fp128 which _is_ supported, there is also PowerPC
double double.
Isn't it an objective of D to move away from such confusing types
and have defined widths?
