Summary: Description Kevin Rice 2008-05-01 21:22:02 BST 
XTCE allows one to select in an attribute eithe MIL-1750A or IEEE-754 formats
and the bitsizes 32, 64, or 128.

This leaves out bitsize 48 for MIL-1750a -- a bug.

It also allows for combinations which are likely not legal:  MIL 64, or MIL
128.

Finally it misses IEEE extended double of 80 bits ...
