The only D compiler that uses excess precision is DMD and only if -O flag is passed. The same example compiled with GDC uses write-read codes. LDC uses SSE codes.

DMD still supports baseline 32 bit Windows that does not have XMM registers.

It would be nice if no excess precision was ever used.

Fun fact: in AIFF files the samplingrate is stored as a 80 bit IEEE Standard 754 floating point. ;)
