  commit c85e54ac6cef0faed7b7ffc722f52523dec59bf5
  Author: Gabriel F. T. Gomes <gabriel@inconstante.eti.br>
  Date:   Fri Nov 3 10:44:36 2017 -0200

      Provide a C++ version of iseqsig (bug 22377)

mistakenly used double parameters in the long double version of iseqsig,
thus causing spurious conversions to double, as reported on bug 23171.

Tested for powerpc64le and x86_64.

	[BZ #23171]
	* math/math.h [C++] (iseqsig): Fix parameter type for the long
	double version.

By the way, is there any kind of test, which could be added to the test
suite, and that would have detected such spurious conversions?

I would guess something like

  volatile long double a = LDBL_MAX;
  volatile long double b = nextdownl (a);
  /* Then test a and b do not compare equal with iseqsig.  */

(not tested that this does indeed fail before and pass after the fix when 
compiled as C++ on a platform where long double is wider than double).

Thanks.  Now pushed as fb0e10b8eb1e.  I'll wait some days, then I can
backport this fix to 2.26 and 2.27.
