Where are these support routines exactly? My first tack was to
modify the lines in lib/libc/Makefile that disabled inclusion
of stuff in the quad subdirectory of libc. This did not produce
any symbols of the form _Qp_*. A find on the libc source tree
likewise finds no file containing the string "Qp"...
