Thank you.
I did. Now I have a makefile-fragment containing this :
FPBIT = fp-bit.c
DPBIT = dp-bit.c
fp-bit.c: $(srcdir)/config/fp-bit.c
echo '#define FLOAT' > fp-bit.c
cat $(srcdir)/config/fp-bit.c >> fp-bit.c
dp-bit.c: $(srcdir)/config/fp-bit.c
cat $(srcdir)/config/fp-bit.c > dp-bit.c
But it did not changed the behavior of my cc1.
I still have this error :
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

../../gcc-4.3.3/gcc/c-cppbuiltin.c:108
108 gcc_assert (fmt->b != 10);
and the back trace is

Is my makefile-fragment not sufficient ? Or maybe the error is not
connected with a floats implementation problem ?
Thank you.
