You are right - it is not defined in glibc.  Instead it is defined in egcs. 
For this particular build, I need to apply the mips patch for egcs 1.0.3a,
which supplies __HAVE_FPU__.  You can find it somewhere on oss.sgi site. 
There is an additional patch for softfloat which makes __HAVE_FPU__
conditional.  See the attachement.

Therefore, it does make sense. :-)
