Actually this is not a regression TImode was never really supported on ppc.

If you did the following on a 3.4 compiler it would ICE:
void main (void)
{
typedef unsigned __uint128_t __attribute__ (( __mode__ (__TI__)));
 __uint128_t x,a,w;
 x=a*w+a-w/a; 
}

So we just reject the code before we ICE which is better than ICEing.

Really any place which used TI mode should be changed because TI mode was never 
supported on ppc-
* (now ppc64 is a different story).
