One thing that is also weird is that gdb prints u as infinity here, but
that may well a gdb quirk.
(gdb) p/x u
$2 = 0x7ffeffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
(gdb) ptype u
type = _Float128

I found that sprintf_ld returns 7 for the value above. It is called
with
Thread 2 hit Breakpoint 1, 0xff0efd9c in std::(anonymous
namespace)::sprintf_ld<long double> (value=infinity, format_string=0xfefcec38
"%.0Lf", length=4934, buffer=0xffbfe8c8 "\177\376", '\377' <repeats 14 times>)
at
/vol/gcc/src/hg/master/local/libstdc++-v3/src/c++17/floating_to_chars.cc:1052
and a simple
sprintf (buf, "%.0Lf", (long double) LDBL_MAX);
indeed returns 7.
