Hi! I have come to present to you all a math library for use with ELKS.
It is for the most part a port of the Minix 2 libm. All code is under
the BSD license except frexp.c and modf.c, hich are under the CDDL
(cause they come from opensolaris -- hell, they built without
modification straight from CVS!)
You'll need to rewrite or leave out modf.c and frexp.c if you want to
use this library with GPL'd programs, because you cannot legally link
together GPL and CDDL code. A third option is to just contact Sun and
ask them to allow us to use these source files under the GPL -- due to
the actual size of the code (less than 50 lines), the request is
reasonable, and Sun might just grant it.
Of course you can still link it, and just not tell anyone of your unholy
creation :)
Attached is a shar archive of the source code, uncleaned (there's a
libm.a file there that's ready for use for i86, you'll need to edit the
Makefile for a native 386 version for bcc -3)
