Yes, of course, but I personally wasn't up to writing my own, so I had
to search elsewhere. And of course I couldn't travel into the future
to use your (as-yet-unwritten) version.  :-)

IIRC, I checked, and the licensing from newlib was acceptable.

Well, half of my point was "here's something for you to cross-build"
if you want to (very roughly) test your implementation. I mean, I
don't even know where in which functionality (or how often) lrintf is
used in mutool, but it did successfully build for me with DJGPP a few
months ago, so I don't think it's the worst example. And, BTW, the
sources include necessary third-party libs, so you don't have to
download loads of extras. But IIRC it surpasses the eight-subdir limit
of DOS, so you probably can't natively build it there without tweaks.
