I was thinking,  that soft FPU can emulate this, or compiler can use 
comp internal as int64 and external as real.
But now I remove comp and go one.


 From these stage I have one suggestion.
on linux-i368  directive $E claim: switch $E is not supported
on linux-arm the same switch cause compiling error (problems with units 
generating with different switch ) remark: all compiled with -CfSOFT
