Makes sense to me.

Do you also want to patch the .h files, or is a link-time error sufficient
if someone tries to use a disabled function? I am not sure how compilers
react if they see a declaration using double when they don't support
double, if they complain immediately or wait until they see actual code
using double to complain or never complain and generate calls to
soft-float.
