Does anyone know of or have implemented a quad precision (128-bit) library for Free Pascal. I see there are some available for C or GCC but not Free Pascal directly. Your feedback is appreciated

I read many threads about arbitrary precision fixed point and floating point libraries or FPC, especially in the German Lazarus Forum.

Supposedly a rather "official" one is part of the Delphi Jedi project.

But I would rather use a proven C library rapped in a DLL/so.

Looks pretty easy to make .obj/.o wrappers for FPC. See f128* files. Also it's quite portable and lacks excessive abstraction layers. Just basic arithmetics though.
