I don't see the point. libm functions are much more difficult than softint/softfloat, just the plain amount of math knowledge necessary to create anything usable is scary. Trying to create our own implementation of things that have been properly implemented over and over and publicly available under BSD licence is, IMO, a very bad idea. -- Jirka Z. _______________________________________________ HelenOS-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.modry.cz/listinfo/helenos-devel
