Are you committed to the name `__ibm128`?  I think a name that says something about floating point would be better than just a company name and a number.  "double double" is the common name for this format pretty much everywhere, and while I certainly would *not* suggest actually spelling it `double double` (i.e. with repeated type specifiers0), you could certainly use something like `__doubledouble`.
