hmm, what again was wrong with my proposal to distinguish between single
and double precision externals, allowing to have externals that would
work on both precisions ("phat")?

it would probably lead to mass extinction of externals that have no
source code available (which - unlike zombie apocalypse - is probably a
good thing anyhow).
