That's nothing to do with float128.  The obsolete X/Open isnan C function 
isn't declared by glibc for C++, deliberately.  That test is *meant* to 
fail.

Look at the <cmath> and <math.h> installed with GCC - in locations such as 
<target>/include/c++/7.2.1/math.h.  The math.h header should include 
<cmath> and then have various using declarations.  The cmath header should 
include directives such as "#undef fpclassify" (meaning that all these 
math.h macros in glibc's math.h are completely irrelevant for C++).  If 
they don't, you need to trace back why the wrong versions of those headers 
got installed by libstdc++ (compare configure results with an installation 
built without --enable-target-optspace, for example).  If the headers look 
as expected, you need to trace the exact sequence of header inclusions, 
macros defines and undefines seen in your C++ test, to see why the C 
macros are visible for C++ when they should always be undefined by the C++ 
cmath header, which is included from the C++ version of math.h.
