Comment(by isaacdupree):

 my gut feeling has been there should be a function or functions
 specifically to convert between different floating types.  I think this is
 something that needs to be invented and proposed on libraries@ .  (I'm not
 volunteering to do it this week because I'm going to a conference, but I'm
 willing to get the conversation started next week)
