Hi there,

Sorry if this has been asked before, but I am curious as to why the
newer methods in StrictMath (including addExact etc.) are now
delegating to methods in Math.

Looking at the other static methods, they seem to be going in the
opposite direction, i.e. Math methods calling equivalent methods in
StrictMath.


Thanks,
Alex.
