   I'm going to try the decimal32 and decimal64 implementation, adding things I 
find about decimal32 and decimal64 in this comment
   
   Other engines:
   1. Clickhouse seems to only consider `"(U)Int*", "Float*", "Decimal*"`  as 
arguments for log 
https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/blob/master/src/Functions/log.cpp#L47-L63
   
   Libraries
   
   1. There a C++ library libdecimal which internally uses [Intel Decimal 
Floating Point 
Library](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/tool/intel-decimal-floating-point-math-library.html)
 for it's 
[decimal32](https://github.com/GaryHughes/stddecimal/blob/main/libdecimal/decimal_cmath.cpp#L150-L159)
 operations. Intel's library itself converts the decimal32 to double and calls 
`log`. 
https://github.com/karlorz/IntelRDFPMathLib20U2/blob/main/LIBRARY/src/bid32_log.c
   2. There was another C++ library based on IBM's decimal decNumber library 
https://github.com/semihc/CppDecimal . This one's implementation of 
[`log`](https://github.com/semihc/CppDecimal/blob/main/src/decNumber.c#L1384-L1518)
 is fully using decimal, but I don't think this would be very performant way to 
do this
