A while back I checked in a Fortran configure patch that allowed me to build Fortran for the mips-mti-elf target. I used the same mechanism (checking with_newlib) that libstdc++ and libjava use. This change broke the aarch64 Fortran build because that platform's newlib does not have strtold. I would like to change configure to not define HAVE_STRTOLD. I could just remove that define but instead I would again like to use the same code that the libstdc++ uses, by checking long_double_math_on_this_cpu. This variable is actually never set, and because of this HAVE_STRTOLD is never set but that allows us to build Fortran on mips and aarch64.
Mips would not use strtold even if HAVE_STRTOLD was defined because mips does not define REAL*10 and the REAL*16 code checks GFC_REAL_16_IS_FLOAT128 (set for mips) before checking for HAVE_STRTOLD. Marcus Shawcroft said it works for him on aarch64 and I tested it on mips, OK for checkin?
