For amd64 we have in asmcomp/amd64/proc_nt.mlp:

(*  xmm0 - xmm15  100 - 115       xmm0 - xmm9: Caml function arguments
                                xmm0 - xmm3: C function arguments
                                xmm0: Caml and C function results
                                xmm6-xmm15 are preserved by C *)

let loc_arguments arg =
  calling_conventions 0 9 100 109 outgoing arg
let loc_parameters arg =
  let (loc, ofs) = calling_conventions 0 9 100 109 incoming arg in loc
let loc_results res =
  let (loc, ofs) = calling_conventions 0 0 100 100 not_supported res in loc

What these first_float=100 and last_float=109 for loc_arguments and
loc_parameters affect? My impression is that floats are always passed
boxed, so xmm registers are in fact never used to pass parameters. And
float values are returned as a pointer in eax, not a value in xmm0 as
loc_results would suggest.
