Since sub-patch 09/52 will poison {FLOAT,DOUBLE,LONG_DOUBLE}_TYPE_SIZE, target 
code building will fail
if it still has these macros.  As I'd like to squash these target changes onto 
09/52, so I didn't note
the background/context here, sorry about that.

Oops, thanks for catching!  I just noticed this sub-patch has inconsistent 
subject & changelog, I should
have noticed this as it has a quite different subject from the others. :(  With 
your finding, I just
re-visited all the other sub-patches, luckily they are consistent.

The below is the updated revision, hope it looks good to you.  Thanks again.

Subject: [PATCH] pdp11: Remove macro {FLOAT,DOUBLE,LONG_DOUBLE}_TYPE_SIZE

This is to remove macros {FLOAT,{,LONG_}DOUBLE}_TYPE_SIZE
defines in pdp11 port, as we want to replace these macros
with hook mode_for_floating_type and poison them.

gcc/ChangeLog:

        * config/pdp11/pdp11.h (FLOAT_TYPE_SIZE): Remove.
        (DOUBLE_TYPE_SIZE): Likewise.
        (LONG_DOUBLE_TYPE_SIZE): Likewise.
