Dear Sergey, добрий ден !
This is most likely because, on the machine you are using,
the type long double is emulated in software, and the way it is
emulated is different in both versions.

Dear GCC, [ 8:2:23 ]
Like Woooew ! What is THIS!? I installed Visual
Studio Code, & your 32 bit C, Version 9.2.0. I ran :
printf("\nOn THIS particular computer, long double is given %d
bytes\n", sizeof(long double)); /* The Answer was: 12 bytes.
THEN, I updated to C Version 12.2.0 and ran the same code, - ON
THE SAME COMPUTER, - but NOW the answer is: 16 bytes !
HOW can this happen if, as I understand it, - this function is
supposed to assess a computer’s *hardware* ? I am on Windows 10 btw.
