Good tip, Rob.
With Sles11sp2, installing the libdfp-devel was enough to pull in the
library, too.  When I tried to install from the SDK, I got a version
mismatch.

The header files look like a pretty good start for documentation.

I wonder if this library can use the much-vaunted (on Google) Z-10 hw
floating point decimal capablilities, and if so - whether this require
any compiler switches.
