- Subject: [patch] Remove sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/bits/huge_vall.h
While building various flavors of glibc for mips I noticed that some of
them had different huge_vall.h header files. This is because glibc has
two huge_vall.h header files (not counting the arch specific ones for
x86, m68k, ia64, and sparc), one in bits/huge_vall.h and one in
sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/bits/huge_vall.h and they are different.
The only difference between the two is some support that the
ieee754 one has for old GCC's that we don't support anymore so I would
like to remove sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/bits/huge_vall.h and leave just
bits/huge_vall.h
Joseph Myers gave a fuller description of why this file isn't needed in
glibc-ports (http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-ports/2012-09/msg00088.html)
and also mentions that the arch specific versions (x86, m68k, ia64, and sparc)
are probably also unneeded but this patch just removes the one in
sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/bits/huge_vall.h.
I tested it by building various mips glibc's and verifying that I now have
the same header for all versions.
