** Description changed:

  Here is another proposal regarding bug report I posted (but in reject).
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/+bug/1716816
  
  I reported that glibc 2.26-0ubuntu1 ( adopted in Artful-proposed on Sep
  5.) causes compilation error by using NVIDIA's CUDA8.0  and 9.0RC.
  
  Under glibc 2.24, they work.
  
  It maybe comes from glibc226's new feature, i.e. "128-bit floating point
  as defined by ISO/IEC/IEEE 60559:2011 (IEEE 754-2008) and ISO/IEC TS
  18661-3:2015" . (Evidence Scripted at bottom)
  
  I proposed the patch to
  
    /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/floatn.h
  
  which lets NVCC (CUDA's compiler) avoid __float128 (NVCC does   support
  neither  8.0 nor 9.0).
  
  So can the patch be merged to glibc2.25 be adopted in Arful or later?
