It's a library used by GCC itself. It's not intended to be a user library. Users are expected to simply write code using _Decimal32, etc., as described at http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.8.0/gcc/Decimal-Float.html . I believe you can find a user version of this library at http://download.icu-project.org/files/decNumber/ . Ian
