converting an unsigned 64 bit in a FPU double

Hi

Suppose following:

You got in some general 64 bit reg (say rax) an unsigned
number and you want to convert it to long double
(FPU 80 bits)

The best I thought can be done is:
(using gcc notation)

push $0
push rax
fldq (%rsp)
addq $16,%rsp

Any better ideas?
