I think it was intentional that we didn't add some of the long double
functions for Alpha.  Ideally none would have been added.  At some
point we want to be able to add 128-bit long double.  So, by
"accidently" leaving out some long double functions maybe we can carry
the message to not use long double on Alpha.
