I'm pretty sure that every platform that can support it does. I
think this is basically "every FPU-supporting platform except for
m68k platforms". m68k is the exception because I don't think there
is a way to disable the FPU (a requirement for lazy FP switching).
I don't see much value in creating such a table.
