[Bug libstdc++/39491] [4.4/4.5 regression] symbol __signbitl@GLIBCXX_3.4 in libstdc++ not exported anymore

It seems to me like setting long-double-fcts = no in glibc should automatically
define __NO_LONG_DOUBLE_MATH.... right?
Anyway.

4.2/4.3, perhaps related to C library changes.
There was a __signbitl export in gnu.ver.
gcc-3.4.6 __signbitl in GLIBCXX_3.4
gcc-4.1.2 __signbitl in GLIBCXX_3.4
gcc-4.2.4 __signbitl in GLIBCXX_3.4
gcc-4.3 __signbitl in GLIBCXX_3.4
So that's how it leaked out of libstdc++ so's.
However, this symbol was never actually defined, exported and placed in the abi
baseline for hppa-linux-gnu, inclusive gcc-3.4 to trunk. Or any other platform.
Thus, why it was removed from gnu.ver, mistakenly as it turns out. . It would
be my inclination to fix glibc and then alias as per Jakub's #13 comment for
hppa-linux only.
