OK, here's the version I checked in.  I will now implement the C++
version of the warning.

Thanks,

+Give a warning when a value of type @code{float} is implicitly
+promoted to @code{double}.  CPUs with a 32-bit ``single-precision''
+floating-point unit implement @code{float} in hardware, but emulate
+@code{double} in software.  On such a machine, doing computations
+using @code{double} values is much more expensive because of the
+overhead required for software emulation.  
+
+It is easy to accidentally do computations with @code{double} because
+floating-point literals are implicitly of type @code{double}.  For
+example, in:
+@smallexample
+@group
+float area(float radius)
+@{
+   return 3.14159 * radius * radius;        
+@}
+@end group
+@end smallexample
+the compiler will perform the entire computation with @code{double}
+because the floating-point literal is a @code{double}.
