We are not requiring gcc-4.1 for -m64, gcc-4.0 -m64 -mlong-double-128 includes the fix. If gcc-4.0 did not work, that would be the place to fix it. IBM extended format long double was a new feature in gcc-3.4 and would be fixed if gcc-3.4 were the current release, but it is not. At this point in the release cycle, only fixes to regressions relative to previous releases are applied. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=26049
