[Cfp-interest] DFP: Mixed types

[Fred J. Tydeman]

9.4 Usual arithmetic conversions, 11.1 Operators, p. 26 7.12.14#1
Comparison macros
  If generic FP is decimal FP, then it seems like we should allow
"mixed" types for conversions and operations.  For example:

  If FLT_RADIX is not 10 and one operand is a decimal floating type, all
  other operands shall not be generic floating type, complex type, or
  imaginary type:

Unless we want to make sure that the code is portable to
implementations where generic FP is non-decimal FP.
