Just my $0.02:

I personally don't like the deep nesting of directories,
but other than that: it looks and works great.

I have some tweaks to add later. For example:
FPA support on little endian ARM (FPA has the words in
big-endian, irrespective of the byte order). We have
4 places where we define the IEEE representation and
where we need to account for this.

FYI,
