4.7 and 4.8 (subject of course to testing there that they do fix the observed problems without causing regressions), since those are the active release branches. (A goal in particular being to avoid new glibc test failures on MIPS in glibc 2.18 from the tests you added verifying the kinds of NaNs resulting from functions, when building with current release branch versions of GCC. Unfortunately we may not have glibc and libgcc working quite so well together on Power Architecture, since there are several IBM long double bugs in libgcc causing glibc test failures for which patches haven't yet been produced for GCC trunk so can't be considered for release branch fixing yet.) -- Joseph S.
