FYI, there is some code in WinUAE / Previous which might be usable, see
e.g. WinUAE sources here:
https://github.com/tonioni/WinUAE/blob/master/softfloat/softfloat_fpsp.cpp
But the code is targetted for m68k only so far, so it likely needs some
work, and we're currently discussing whether it's feasible to include it
into QEMU at all, see this thread here:
