Probably because...
AC_TRY_COMPILE(, [
#if !defined __LONG_DOUBLE_128__ || (defined(__sparc__) && defined(__arch64__))
#error no need for long double compatibility
#endif
], [ac_ldbl_compat=yes], [ac_ldbl_compat=no])
if test "$ac_ldbl_compat" = yes; then
AC_DEFINE([_GLIBCXX_LONG_DOUBLE_COMPAT],1,
[Define if compatibility should be provided for
-mlong-double-64.])
port_specific_symbol_files="\$(top_srcdir)/config/os/gnu-linux/ldbl-extra.ver"
fi
already existed immediately above the new test in configure.ac.
