32948b81c4 The logb() functions are not just ieee754 "test" functions, but are
standard in C99 and POSIX.1-2001+.  They are also not deprecated, since
apart from being standard they can handle special args slightly better
than the ilogb() functions.

Move their documentation to ilogb.3.  Try to use consistent and improved
wording for both sets of functions.  All of ieee854, C99 and POSIX
have better wording and more details for special args.

Add history for the logb() functions and ilogbl().  Fix history for
ilogb().

10b01832c3 Replace fegetmask() and fesetmask() with feenableexcept(),
fedisableexcept(), and fegetexcept().  These two sets of routines
provide the same functionality.  I implemented the former as an
undocumented internal interface to make the regression test easier to
write.  However, fe(enable|disable|get)except() is already part of
glibc, and I would like to avoid gratuitous differences.  The only
major flaw in the glibc API is that there's no good way to report
errors on processors that don't support all the unmasked exceptions.

29bf6af890 - Move the functions presently described in in ieee(3) to their own

- Add recently-implemented functions to the table.
- Un-document the error bounds that only apply to the old 4BSD math
  library, and fill in the correct values where I know them.  No
  attempt has been made to document bounds lower than 1 ulp, although
  smaller bounds are usually achievable in round-to-nearest mode.

2f90a15e14 Add trivial implementations of scalbln() and scalblnf().
These routines are specified in C99 for the sake of
architectures where an int isn't big enough to represent
the full range of floating-point exponents.  However,
even the 128-bit long double format has an exponent smaller
than 15 bits, so for all practical purposes, scalbln() and
scalblnf() are aliases for scalbn() and scalbnf(), respectively.

2a6bf1fadb Memory's free, but all the world ain't a VAX anymore. Bring math.3
kicking and screaming into the 1980's.  This change converts most of
the markup from man(7) to mdoc(7) format, and I believe it removes or
updates everything that was flat out wrong.  However, much work is
still needed to sanitize the markup, improve coverage, and reduce
overlap with other manpages.  Some of the sections would better belong
in a philosophy_of_w_kahan.3 manpage, but they are informative and
remain at least as reminders of topics to cover.
