Most (if not all) are in Fortran77. Despite the age, these are very good quality, some are written by legendary people, e.g. William Kahan. I decided to remove all routines, which are available via existing ports, e.g. math/lapack, math/linpack, etc. I also removed routines available via math/slatec, yet to be comitted: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/151970 Perhaps this is not a good idea, and you prefer to have a default CMLIB installation, even though this will create multiple copies of many libraries? >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
