This contribution needs an explicit statement that it's licensed
under the softfloat-2a license (or at worst some other GPL-2
compatible license), because we're in the middle of doing a
relicensing on this file. If you say something like
"This contribution can be licensed under either the softfloat-2a or -2b
license." that would be sufficient.

We've also accepted contributions which move the file gradually
towards QEMU coding style, so either way is acceptable.
