glibc on many arches doesn't have a standard conforming fma(3) - for float
just using double multiplication and addition should be good enough, but
especially for long double the current implementation is wrong. So, if there was
a soft-fp FMA that could be used on all the targets that can't do this in
hardware, it would be great.
