Currently, the cephes package only prints: "We do not install the cephes library on any operating system except Cygwin."
I think boost.math would be a better choice of special function library e.g. for systems where the libc implementation sucks. Also, it seems like cephes is included in scipy distribution (scipy-0.9.p1/src/scipy/special/cephes/) so we ship it already. Remove the cephes spkg?
