Description of problem:
__tgammal(NaN) tests an uninitialized local variable because __ieee754_gammal_r
does not set *signgam for a NaN.

-----sysdeps/generic/w_tgammal.c:37
        y = __ieee754_gammal_r(x,&local_signgam);
        if (local_signgam < 0) y = -y;
-----

-----sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-96/e_gammal_r.c:47
  if ((es & 0x7fff) == 0x7fff && ((hx & 0x7fffffff) | lx) != 0)
    /* NaN, return it.  */
    return x;
-----

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
glibc-2.3.2-11.9

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Run testcase math/test-ldouble and watch when x==NaN.
2.
3.
    

Actual Results:  local_signgam is tested even though its value has not been set.

Expected Results:  local_signgam is tested only when its value has been set.

Additional info:

It would be more efficient if __ieee754_gammal_r just set "*signgam = 0;"
immediately upon entry, instead of for [almost-]every boundary case.
