No.  However, changing it breaks math/test-tgmath.c as it defines its own
nextafterl and nexttowardl in the same compilation unit, causing the assembler
to fail with:
/tmp/ccE9ypFK.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccE9ypFK.s:22067: Error: symbol `__nextafterieee128' is already defined

Any suggestions on how to proceed?
