Re: new common math function modules

[Paolo Bonzini]

I oppose this.  This causes -lm -lm -lm -lm -lm to appear in the link
lines, which is not aesthetic, and causes quite some bloat in
configure scripts size and execution time.

Is there a function that is never provided in libc unless all of them
are provided in libc?  If so, I'd say that a simple AC_SEARCH_LIBS is
enough (tweaking CFLAGS around it to define NO_MATH_INLINES, and
saving LIBS).  Same would go for long functions too.
