fenv.h that are currently inlined.
The definitions are provided in fenv.c via 'extern inline'
declaractions. This assumes the compiler handles 'extern inline' as
specified in C99, which has been true under FreeBSD since 8.0.
The goal is to eventually remove the 'static' keyword from the inline
definitions in fenv.h, so that non-inlined references all wind up
pointing to the same external definition like they're supposed to.
I am deferring the second step to provide a window where
newly-compiled apps will still link against old math libraries.
(This isn't supported, but there's no need to cause undue breakage.)

on i386-class hardware for sinl and cosl. The hand-rolled argument
reduction have been replaced by e_rem_pio2l() implementations. To
preserve history the following commands have been executed:
svn cp src/e_rem_pio2.c ld80/e_rem_pio2l.h
mv ${HOME}/bde/ld80/e_rem_pio2l.c ld80/e_rem_pio2l.h
svn cp src/e_rem_pio2.c ld128/e_rem_pio2l.h
mv ${HOME}/bde/ld128/e_rem_pio2l.c ld128/e_rem_pio2l.h
The ld80 version has been tested by bde, das, and kargl over the
last few years (bde, das) and few months (kargl). An older ld128
version was tested by das. The committed version has only been
compiled tested via 'make universe'.

implementing accurate logarithms in different bases. This is based
on an approach bde coded up years ago.
This function should always be inlined; it will be used in only a few
places, and rudimentary tests show a 40% performance improvement in
implementations of log2() and log10() on amd64.
The kernel takes a reduced argument x and returns the same polynomial
approximation as e_log.c, but omitting the low-order term. The low-order
term is much larger than the rest of the approximation, so the caller of
the kernel function can scale it to the appropriate base in extra precision
and obtain a much more accurate answer than by using log(x)/log(b).
Explanation by Steve:
jn[f](n,x) for certain ranges of x uses downward recursion to compute
the value of the function. The recursion sequence that is generated is
proportional to the actual desired value, so a normalization step is
taken. This normalization is j0[f](x) divided by the zeroth sequence
member. As Bruce notes, near the zeros of j0[f](x) the computed value
can have giga-ULP inaccuracy. I found for the 1st zero of j0f(x) only
the leading decimal digit is correct. The solution to the issue is
fairly straight forward. The zeros of j0(x) and j1(x) never coincide,
so as j0(x) approaches a zero, the normalization constant switches to
j1[f](x) divided by the 2nd sequence member. The expectation is that
j1[f](x) is a more accurately computed value.

This change is needed because isnanf() isn't declared in strict POSIX

Compatibility note: Apps using isnan(float) that are compiled after

The amd64-specific bits of msun use an undocumented constraint, which is
less likely to be supported by other compilers (such as Clang). Change
