------- Comment #7 from ktietz at gcc dot gnu dot org 2009-09-27 09:25 ------- The new attribute "basetype_mode" (see http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2009-09/msg01907.html for patch) could provide a way to solve this, as it makes sure that it is associated to the base type, instead of the current type declaration as "mode" attribute does.
by defining __float128 as '#define __float128 float __attribute__ ((basetype_mode(DF)))' Constructs like '__complex__ DFtype z;' getting handled proper, too. Maybe this is a way to solve this issue. Kai -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32187
