Hello.

I've put a new work-in-progress patch here:

    http://www.phekda.freeserve.co.uk/richdawe/kbw-maths-20030928.diff.gz

It's around a megabyte uncompressed. I didn't think there was much point
posting it to djgpp-workers. I have no idea if it works. It compiles, at
least.

You can find some notes I made here:

    http://www.phekda.freeserve.co.uk/richdawe/kbw-maths-notes.txt

New notes, since the last release:

* Ignore standard.results for now - we don't have a standard set
  of C99 FP functions yet!

* Code for: cosl, erfcl, y0l, y1l, ynl?

* Documentation for: jy0l, jy1l, jynl, nonesuchl, sinl, tanl?

* Integrated docs, except those for functions that have not been integrated.
- Changed portability info to "!ansi-c89, ansi-c99" from "ansi, posix".

* modfl not integrated.
- DJGPP already has modfl.

* mdnorm prototype in *.h inconsistent with the one in qsqrta.c.
- Is this a problem? Causes "make all" to fail in tests/cygnus/tgen/qfloat.

* Warnings in tests/cygnus/tgen/qfloat:

bash-2.04$ make
gcc  -Wall -march=pentium -O2 -c qexp2.c
gcc  -Wall -march=pentium -O2 -c qflt.c
qflt.c: In function `e113toq':
qflt.c:1771: warning: passing arg 1 of `qclear' from incompatible pointer type
qflt.c:1799: warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type
qflt.c:1820: warning: passing arg 1 of `shift' from incompatible pointer type
qflt.c:1823: warning: passing arg 1 of `normlz' from incompatible pointer type

qflt.c:1828: warning: passing arg 1 of `qmov' from incompatible pointer type
ar -rs qfloatx.a qexp2.o qflt.o

* Need to integrate changes to tests/cygnus/tgen/makefile.

* Rename DblMath.[ch], FltMath.[ch], LdblTest.h to have lower-case names,
  to be consistent with other files in DJGPP CVS.

* keepthis.h? Build broken, until I have that file.

KB: I've integrated your documentation, new qfloat code and testzips that you
sent me. As far as I know, I'm up-to-date with everything you've sent me.
(Except <math.h>, which I'm fixing up. And a couple of makefiles, which I'm
merging manually.)

Bye, Rich =]
