I'm reluctant to backport this.  It's not a bug fix, and is potentially
behavior changing.  Float and double are implicitly converted to real with just
the one version of the function always returning the real precision nextafter
result.  Adding specific float and double implementations of nextafter would
result in lower precision result.

Lowering severity to enhancement while pondering the risks more.
