What should we expect from the floating point support in 64-bit Delphi compiler?

  • Will 64-bit compiler use SSE to
    implement floating point arithmetic?

  • Will 64-bit compiler support the
    current 80-bit floating type
    (Extended)?

These questions are closely related, so I ask them as a single question.

    In hindsight logical, because while SSE2 regs are 128 bit, they are used as two 64-bit doubles.
