Bug 77586, and previously
<https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-bugs/2016-08/msg03233.html>, reports
ia64-elf failing to build because of float128_type_node being NULL,
but being used by the back end for __float128.
The global float128_type_node is only available conditionally, if
target hooks indicate TFmode is not only available as a scalar mode
and of the right format, but also supported in libgcc. The back-end
support, however, expects the type always to be available for
__float128 even if the libgcc support is missing.
Although a target-specific node could be restored in the case where
libgcc support is missing, it seems better to address the missing
libgcc support. Thus, this patch enables TFmode soft-fp in libgcc
globally for all ia64 targets. Support for XFmode in libgcc (that is,
for libgcc2.c XFmode functions, not soft-fp) is also enabled for all
ia64 targets so that ia64 no longer needs to define the
TARGET_LIBGCC_FLOATING_MODE_SUPPORTED_P hook.
I've confirmed that ia64-elf builds cc1 with this patch and it passes
-fself-test. I have not otherwise tested the patch. It's plausible
that ia64-elf and ia64-freebsd might work as-is, but ia64-vms probably
needs further changes, by someone familiar with VMS shared libraries,
to implement an equivalent of ia64/t-softfp-compat in that case
(avoiding conflicts between __divtf3 from soft-fp and the old alias
for __divxf3).
