Description of denormals etc., and how they're represented in memory:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_754#Single-precision_32_bit

As for tackling denormal issues:

The FLUSH_TO_ZERO(x) macro can be seen used in TAP's tap_utils.h

The first post above suggest that it sometimes may not work due to
compiler optimisations, so the second post suggests a workaround similar
to what is used by CAPS.

I hope this is useful.
