isnormal() the hard way, rather than relying on fpclassify(). This is
a lose in the sense that we need a total of 12 functions, but it is
necessary for binary compatibility because we have never bumped libm's
major version number. In particular, isinf(), isnan(), and isnanf()
were BSD libc functions before they were C99 macros, so we can't
reimplement them in terms of fpclassify() without adding a dependency
on libc.so.5. I have tried to arrange things so that programs that
could be compiled in FreeBSD 4.X will generate the same external
references when compiled in 5.X. At the same time, the new macros
should remain C99-compliant.
The isinf() and isnan() functions remain in libc for historical
reasons; however, I have moved the functions that implement the macros
isfinite() and isnormal() to libm where they belong. Moreover,
half a dozen MD versions of isinf() and isnan() have been replaced
with MI versions that work equally well.

libc. I want to keep these in some version for the thread
library/ies, but don't know whether to have them repo-copied
to libc_r or renamed and kept in libc.
Change the name of an alpha macro that was changed with the
system call commit.
functions are defined in SUSv2 and the latest POSIX spec.
Thanks to Bernd Walter <ticso@cicely8.cicely.de> for helping debug my
alpha assembly.

the number of times I have given this to people and got asked: why isn't
it in libc? It is impossible to do this without assembler glue to reset
the stack for the new child process.
int rfork_thread(flags, stack_addr, start_fnc, start_arg)
int flags; Flags to rfork system call. See rfork(2).
void *stack_addr; Top of stack for thread.
int (*start_fnc)(void *); Address of thread function to call in child.
void *start_arg; Argument to pass to the thread function in child.
This is deliberately not documented or prototyped in includes until the
corresponding alpha version is written.
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.
1) Changed LIB_SCCS and SYSLIB_SCCS to LIB_RCS and SYSLIB_RCS.
2) Changed sccsid[] variables to rcsid[]
3) Moved all RCSID strings into .text
4) Converted all SCCSID's to RCS $Id$'s
5) Added missing $Id$'s after copyright.
