Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

. Hook e_lgammal[_r].c to the build.
. Create man page links for lgammal[-r].3.
* Symbol.map:
. Sort lgammal to its rightful place.
. Add FBSD_1.4 section for the new lgamal_r symbol.
* ld128/e_lgammal_r.c:
. 128-bit implementataion of lgammal_r().
* ld80/e_lgammal_r.c:
. Intel 80-bit format implementation of lgammal_r().
* src/e_lgamma.c:
. Expose lgammal as a weak reference to lgamma for platforms
where long double is mapped to double.
* src/e_lgamma_r.c:
. Use integer literal constants instead of real literal constants.
Let compiler(s) do the job of conversion to the appropriate type.
. Expose lgammal_r as a weak reference to lgamma_r for platforms
where long double is mapped to double.
* src/e_lgammaf_r.c:
. Fixed the Cygnus Support conversion of e_lgamma_r.c to float.
This includes the generation of new polynomial and rational
approximations with fewer terms. For each approximation, include
a comment on an estimate of the accuracy over the relevant domain.
. Use integer literal constants instead of real literal constants.
Let compiler(s) do the job of conversion to the appropriate type.
This allows the removal of several explicit casts of double values
to float.
* src/e_lgammal.c:
. Wrapper for lgammal() about lgammal_r().
* src/imprecise.c:
. Remove the lgamma.
* src/math.h:
. Add a prototype for lgammal_r().
* man/lgamma.3:
. Document the new functions.

in math.h; the consensus here was that __BSD_VISIBLE was correct instead.
- gamma_r, lgamma_r, gammaf_r, and lgammaf_r had no documentation in the
lgamma(3) manpage.

page and add an historical note explaining this. This patch is
based on Stephen's.
We still need someone to implement tgamma.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
Corrected some bogus cross references to man pages that we don't/won't
have and either deleted them, or found a more appropriate man page
that we do have. Various other minor changes to silence manck.
Manck is currently down to about 200 lines of errors, down from
the 500 - 600+ when I started all this.
-- Begin comments from J.T. Conklin:
The most significant improvement is the addition of "float" versions
of the math functions that take float arguments, return floats, and do
all operations in floating point. This doesn't help (performance)
much on the i386, but they are still nice to have.
The float versions were orginally done by Cygnus' Ian Taylor when
fdlibm was integrated into the libm we support for embedded systems.
I gave Ian a copy of my libm as a starting point since I had already
fixed a lot of bugs & problems in Sun's original code. After he was
done, I cleaned it up a bit and integrated the changes back into my
libm.
