I think we will need add a concept of CFLAGS to build glibc itself and CFLAGS 
to build tests regarding ABI.  The '-mabi=ibmlongdouble' will
be added only libraries.

On sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/le/Makefile, add type-ldouble-CFLAGS but filtering
out $(tests), $(tests-internal), $(xtests), $(test-srcs), $(tests-time64),
and  $(xtests-time64) (maybe add a new rule to add all tests) and then 
add the required on each tests (we might know the default from configure,
but I think it would be simple to always add the long double abi flags).
