Hi!
sparc64 nexttoward test fails, because nexttoward(0, -0.0L) returns 0, not
-0, similarly nexttoward(-0, 0.0L) returns -0. All other nexttoward
implementation return y, but actually the documentation speaks about x.

* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/s_nexttoward.c (__nexttoward): If x == y,
return y not x.
* manual/arith.texi (nextafter): Document it.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-96/s_nexttoward.c: Fix a comment.

The @code{nextafter} function returns the next representable neighbor of
@var{x} in the direction towards @var{y}. The size of the step between
@var{x} and the result depends on the type of the result. If
-@math{@var{x} = @var{y}} the function simply returns @var{x}. If either
+@math{@var{x} = @var{y}} the function simply returns @var{y}. If either
value is @code{NaN}, @code{NaN} is returned. Otherwise
a value corresponding to the value of the least significant bit in the
mantissa is added or subtracted, depending on the direction.
