Hi,

in my system (2.6.34-gentoo-r2), "man cerf" gives me the description of a
certain complex error function. This function however is nowhere to be
found. I tried this on 5 other linux boxes with the same result.

May be the function was taken out at some point but the documentation stayed.

Here is a minimum test file which can be saved as "test.c" and complied as

gcc test.c -lm

------
#include <math.h>
#include <complex.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main (void){
        double complex b,c;
        b=I*0.2;
        c=cerf(b);
        printf("%f + i%f\n",creal(c),cimag(c));
}
------

regards,

Ozgur,
