(this is an issue dating back to 2005, standards/83845 ) No, nor some other functions in the spec. But you could add it by patching libm or using libmap.conf(5) to divert the loader from libm to a library of your own. Someone posted an implementation for a port derived from Sun sources in: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-multimedia/2009-March/009819.html >Second, I'm aware that altivec support is implemented in -CURRENT, as of >some months ago, will this be stable enough for release?
