Add scan for IBM and Cray mainframe fp formats.
For completeness: it's quite unlikely Perl would build in those environments. Though with Cray it's less impossible: Perl used to build in C90 UNICOS, in 5.8-ish timeframe. With IBM, highly unlikely, because there probably never was a UNIXy enough environment where the IBM Floating Point Architecture was used.
