Having both just causes conflicts.
Unless there is a different source for each??

You mention below, C for complex.  Would the difference be:
  std::complex<float>
  float complex  (possibly in an extern "C" block?)

And something similar for Decimal FP??

Would we really want that?  I thought you can only do that if they
are exactly the same??

Did anyone ever implement the C prefix type?
This would indicate that Df Dd De would make sense.

Or you could have special Sf, Sd, Se abbreviations for the Decimal FP
template class types.
