dfe5233b59 Implement the long double version for the cube root function, cbrtl.
The algorithm uses Newton's iterations with a crude estimate of the
cube root to converge to a result.

8e26469445 Remove numerous references to VAX floating-point and the setting of
errno, replacing them with a discussion of IEEE exceptions where
appropriate.  Cross-reference fenv(3) whenever exceptions are
mentioned.

64890443c1 Use ".Lb libm" where it will have an effect (not just in the zombie man
pages in libm).

1130b656e5 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
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.

4bd9ba3c2f Fixed some minor formatting problems to silence manck some more.
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.

3a8617a83f J.T. Conklin's latest version of the Sun math library.
-- 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.
