Would this cause my issue to surface at all? We don't specify  
anything when building gcc. Or is this unrelated?

--with-long-double-128
Specify if long double type should be 128-bit by default on selected  
GNU/Linux architectures. If using --without-long-double-128, long  
double will be by default 64-bit, the same as double type. When  
neither of these configure options are used, the default will be 128- 
bit long double when built against GNU C Library 2.4 and later, 64- 
bit long double otherwise.
