Here is the link to Jim Weigang's APL version. 
http://www.chilton.com/~jimw/fdist.html
 
I've converted the html material to APL using his APLASCII workspace and they 
work fine in APLWIN. If anyone wants this workspace I'll be happy to email it. 
Anyway, these are not "high precision" in the sense of the 
Extended_Precision_Functions but for my application, extended precision is not 
necessary. All I want to do is compute critical values of the F distribution in 
my statistics class. My class is using Release: J5.03.

I have never seen one in J.  If you can provide a
link to Jim Weigang's APL function perhaps members
of the Forum can translate it.

I have some thoughts of doing more of the standard
functions in
http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/Essays/Extended_Precision_Functions
The F distribution and the inverse F are currently
not in the list.
