Hi,

the types _Decimal* require for the host compiler to be built with
--enable-decimal-float.

package/gcc/gcc.mk:
-------------------

HOST_GCC_COMMON_CONF_OPTS = \
	--target=$(GNU_TARGET_NAME) \
	--with-sysroot=$(STAGING_DIR) \
	--enable-__cxa_atexit \
	--with-gnu-ld \
	--disable-libssp \
	--disable-multilib \
	--disable-decimal-float                 <----- !!!


Can we turn --disable-decimal-float into --enable-decimal-float on
s390x arch ? It fixed the problem for me.

package/gcc/gcc.mk:
-------------------

ifeq ($(BR2_s390x),y)
HOST_GCC_COMMON_CONF_OPTS += \
	--with-long-double-128 \
	--enable-decimal-float                 <----- !!!
endif

Regards
Alex
