I think we can assume standard C for DJGPP. This __F() stuff is horrible.

But if you want to keep it, you could use __P() from <sys/cdefs.h>. This is
what <libm/math.h> uses at the moment.

Why don't we move everything from <libm/math.h> into <math.h> and make
<libm/math.h> just include <math.h>? I know people have suggested doing it the
other way round, but this way seems to make more sense to me. <math.h> will
then be the One True Header for maths.

Bye, Rich =]
