It's probably better to directly introduce a longdouble type with longdouble (128 bit) semantics on all platforms. I don't think that emulating the almost nowhere supported 80 bit type does much good.
Is 128 bit supported by any hardware ? 80 bit is and it's an IEEE standard format. So I can't imagine why it is "nowhere supported"
