This is the first of a series of patches to ban ieee854_long_double
and the ieee854_long_double macros when using IBM long double. union
ieee854_long_double just isn't correct for IBM long double, especially
when little-endian, and pretending it is OK has allowed a number of
bugs to remain undetected in sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/.
This changes the few places in generic code that use it.
* stdio-common/printf_size.c (__printf_size): Don't use
union ieee854_long_double in fpnum union.
* stdio-common/printf_fphex.c (__printf_fphex): Likewise. Use
signbit macro to retrieve sign from long double.
* stdio-common/printf_fp.c (___printf_fp): Use signbit macro to
retrieve sign from long double.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/printf_fphex.c: Adjust for fpnum change.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/printf_fphex.c: Likewise.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-96/printf_fphex.c: Likewise.
* sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/printf_fphex.c: Likewise.
* math/test-misc.c (main): Don't use union ieee854_long_double.
