Sort of. It's 80 bits of useful data with 48 bits of unused padding.
Really?! Ugh. Hopefully D handles it better?

From Wikipedia:
"On the x86 architecture, most compilers implement long double as the
80-bit extended precision type supported by that hardware (sometimes
stored as 12 or 16 bytes to maintain data structure alignment)."
That's all there is to know I think.
