The ARM architecture mandates that converting a NaN value to
integer gives zero (if Invalid Operation FP exceptions are
not being trapped). This isn't the behaviour of the SoftFloat
library, so NaNs must be special-cased.

Why not just use:

static int float32_is_any_nan(float32 x)
{
  return float32_is_nan(x) || float32_is_signaling_nan(x);
}

and likewise for the 64-bit case?

That was what my first-pass patches did, but I
rewrote them this way because it seemed more
straightforward to just test for "is this a NaN" rather
than calling two other functions which each test for
"is this some subset of NaN space".

I suppose you could argue that softfloat ought to
have _is_nan() [with the semantics you'd expect
from the function name, not the ones it currently has!],
_is_signalling_nan() and _is_quiet_nan() functions
built in, but it doesn't...

I agree that the functions are poorly named.  I think it'd be better to
leave the bit-twiddling to the softfloat bits, though.  There's
precedent for the more verbose approach in other backends, too.
