Let signbit use the builtin in C++ mode with gcc < 6.x (bug 22296) 

When using gcc < 6.x, signbit does not use the type-generic
__builtin_signbit builtin, instead it uses __MATH_TG.
However, when library support for float128 is available, __MATH_TG uses
__builtin_types_compatible_p, which is not available in C++ mode.

On the other hand, libstdc++ undefines (in cmath) many macros from
math.h, including signbit, so that it can provide its own functions.
However, during its configure tests, libstdc++ just tests for the
availability of the macros (it does not undefine them, nor does it
provide its own functions).

Finally, libstdc++ configure tests include math.h and get the definition
of signbit that uses __MATH_TG (and __builtin_types_compatible_p).
Since libstdc++ does not undefine the macros during its configure
tests, they fail.

This patch lets signbit use the builtin in C++ mode when gcc < 6.x is
used. This allows the configure test in libstdc++ to work.

Tested for x86_64.
