Hello Ray,
The changes have been committed, except for the changes to the Fortran code. Patches
to the Fortran code are temporarily available here:
Patches to use long-float (SCL, CLISP):

Patches to use CMU CL double-double-float:

The CLISP version is working relatively well. The CMUCL double-double float version has
some problems that have not been explored yet but can be reproduced with the above patch.
Regards
Douglas Crosher
