Hello
	I'm using pvm3 (parallel virtual machine) under FreeBSD, this
package uses xdr to exchange data between computers.
	Two functions, xdr_float and xdr_double, used by this package
are absent from libc and, since 386bsd0.1, I'm using the code below.
	In src/lib/libc/xdr there is a xdr_float.c file but Makefile.inc
defines UNSUPPORTED+=   xdr_float.c
	My question is, is it possible to add the code below in future
releases of FreeBSD? 

#include <rpc/types.h>
#include <rpc/xdr.h>
int
xdr_float(xdrp, fp)
        XDR *xdrp; 
        float *fp;
{
        return xdr_long(xdrp, (long*)fp);
}    

int  
xdr_double(xdrp, dp)
        XDR *xdrp;
        double *dp; 
{
                return xdr_long(xdrp, (long*)dp + 1)
                                && xdr_long(xdrp, (long*)dp);
} 

Pedro
