This description is not consistent with the patch.

__divkc3 should always be using IEEE binary128 format, not IBM long 
double.  If this code is being built for IBM long double, something is 
wrong somewhere else.

Using the DFmode values probably makes sense for IBM long double, but not 
for IEEE binary128.
