I don't think this is supported by GCC building system.  libquadmath,
like other GCC target libraries, is only expected to be built with the
exact same GCC version in the release tarball.  Using another compiler
may cause failure.

For this specific issue, take a look at configure.ac:

AM_CONDITIONAL(BUILD_LIBQUADMATH, [test "x$libquad_cv_have_float128" = xyes])

So, if your compiler does not support __float128, libquadmath building
system will do nothing.
