Hello,

I'm not an r600g person but I will be pleased to have a look to this work.
I'm currently working on the fp64 for r600g. Hope to be able to send a
series in fews days.
The fp64 code is not HW specific, I can test it on my laptop with an
Intel card. I don't even own a r600g card.

Have a nice day.
