In fact, why are these tests being run for long double at all - why are 
there any long double ulps (presuming you truncated the file and 
regenerated from scratch, as you should at least once per release cycle)?  
You have long-double-fcts = no in your makefile.  Contradicting that, you 
have #undef __NO_LONG_DOUBLE_MATH in ports/sysdeps/hppa/fpu/bits/mathdef.h 
- if you really have long double same as double, that should be defined to 
1, not undefined.  I'm not sure the combination of long-double-fcts = no 
with #undef __NO_LONG_DOUBLE_MATH is expected to do anything sensible.

(However, I'd consider it inadvisable to fix the __NO_LONG_DOUBLE_MATH 
definition before you've set up ABI test baselines for hppa and verified 
them against old binaries of old releases - that sort of change has 
significant risk of causing unintended changes to symbols in past ABI 
versions.)
