I encountered the same problem while compiling gcc-4.5.1 on AIX. The
problem is that GCC tries to use the 128 bit long double functions.
These are not the default on AIX (see [1]).
I've got no idea if this is right or not, but I have access to an AIX system
where gcc seems pretty broken (including <unistd.h> stops a hello world program
compiling.)
BUT, I note gcc was configured like this
bash-4.0$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0
Configured with: ../stage/gcc-4.2.4/configure --disable-shared
--enable-threads=posix --prefix=/opt/pware --with-long-double-128
--with-mpfr=/opt/pware --with-gmp=/opt/pware
Thread model: aix
gcc version 4.2.4
bash-4.0$
I've no idea what --with-long-double-128 does, but it might be relevant.
