Best I can tell, the fdlibm 5.3 on netlib was released in 2002, and essentially stopped existing as a maintained project then. Everyone else copied the source code, and made their own changes independently ever since :-( At least the folks behind the Julia language have made some effort to resurrect it as its own project:
http://openlibm.org/
Mark noted that GCC does use a different math library for tan() calls it can evaluate at compile-time. That appears to have started in gcc 4.3:

In any case ... are there are any test failures here on a _current_ OS/platform? If it's only on out-of-date platforms, I'd be content to just suppress the failures on those. Unless the number of affected systems is so large that their identifiers won't fit in a file ;-) |
