Implement the long double version for the cube root function, cbrtl.
The algorithm uses Newton's iterations with a crude estimate of the
cube root to converge to a result.

Hook up sqrtl() to the build.


# 174586 14-Dec-2007 das

Update the standards section, and make a minor clarification about the
return value of sqrt.


# 165906 08-Jan-2007 imp

Remove California Regent's clause 3, per letter


# 140269 14-Jan-2005 das

Remove numerous references to VAX floating-point and the setting of
errno, replacing them with a discussion of IEEE exceptions where
appropriate. Cross-reference fenv(3) whenever exceptions are
mentioned.

Use ".Lb libm" where it will have an effect (not just in the zombie man
pages in libm).

$Id$ -> $FreeBSD$


# 22993 22-Feb-1997 peter

Revert $FreeBSD$ to $Id$


# 21673 14-Jan-1997 jkh

Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$

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.


# 14042 11-Feb-1996 mpp

Fixed some minor formatting problems to silence manck some more.
Corrected some bogus cross references to man pages that we don't/won't
have and either deleted them, or found a more appropriate man page
that we do have. Various other minor changes to silence manck.

Manck is currently down to about 200 lines of errors, down from
the 500 - 600+ when I started all this.

# 2116 19-Aug-1994 jkh

J.T. Conklin's latest version of the Sun math library.

-- Begin comments from J.T. Conklin:
The most significant improvement is the addition of "float" versions
of the math functions that take float arguments, return floats, and do
all operations in floating point. This doesn't help (performance)
much on the i386, but they are still nice to have.

The float versions were orginally done by Cygnus' Ian Taylor when
fdlibm was integrated into the libm we support for embedded systems.
I gave Ian a copy of my libm as a starting point since I had already
fixed a lot of bugs & problems in Sun's original code. After he was
done, I cleaned it up a bit and integrated the changes back into my
libm.
-- End comments
