Rich:

I think they still apply .... well mostly.

There were some patches to softfloat that Peter had pulled in independently and they are
now in qemu.git master.  And I think there may be some conflicts now with those.  So,
specifically, you can ignore these from the VSX Stage 3 series (http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2014-01/msg00095.html):

  Subject: [V5 PATCH 04/22] softfloat: Fix float64_to_uint32
  Subject: [V5 PATCH 01/22] softfloat: Fix float64_to_uint64
  Subject: [V5 PATCH 03/22] softfloat: Fix float64_to_uint64_round_to_zero
  Subject: [V5 PATCH 02/22] softfloat: Add float32_to_uint64()
  Subject: [V5 PATCH 05/22] softfloat: Fix float64_to_uint32_round_to_zero

and these from the ISA 2.06 series (http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2014-01/msg00596.html)

  Subject: [V4 PATCH 15/22] softfloat: Refactor code handling various rounding modes
  Subject: [V4 PATCH 14/22] softfloat: Factor out RoundAndPackFloat16 and NormalizeFloat16Subnormal
  Subject: [V4 PATCH 13/22] softfloat: Fix exception flag handling for float32_to_float16()
  Subject: [V4 PATCH 16/22] softfloat: Add support for ties-away rounding

I will send you directly a tarball of patches that you may find convenient.
