Hi,

the functions in distn.R were converted from .Internal to .External ([1], in 
2012), and to .Call ([2], in 2014).
They are still listed as .Internal in names.c, although they are not used in 
that way.

Shouldn’t they be removed?
There’s quite some simplification to be had, e.g., do_math3 could go away and 
do_math2 would be simpler.

If that makes sense (I may be missing something?), I’d be happy to create a 
patch that does this.

Best,
Lukas
