Hello
This page shows:
"GCC handles abs() and labs() as built-in functions. GCC 3.0 also
handles llabs() and imaxabs() as built-ins."
As GCC3 has been around for 10 years now.. should these be combined? e.g.
" GCC handles abs(), labs(), llabs() and imaxabs() as built-in functions."
There may be other man pages with similar GCC 3.0 references that
could be combined now.
Regards, Jonny
