There isn't gonna be an easy fix here then (I went through this one day
with sparc64). The missing function need to be added to libc, libc compiled up
and installed so that floating point programs gcc emits those calls for will
link correctly. Basically at this point the "host compiler is working" is no
longer true due to these library calls. (which is also what bites the sparc64
on perl at the moment).
