Ping.  This patch is rather trivial.

Please apply

        * math/libm-test.inc (exp_test): Exclude expl(1000.0L) from
	being executed on PowerPC as the expected result exceeds IBM
	Long Double 128 __LDBL_MAX__.  This will prevent the default 
	pedantic warnings appearing during make check under compilation 
	by GCC 4.3
