I don't understand: there is already math code there, and you cannot be much more low level than what's there (there is already quite a bit of bit twiddling for long double). I split the code into complex and real, IEEE 754 macros/funcs in another file. I don' think we need to split into one file / function, at least not with the current size of the library.
Yeah, but the added code in four versions with documentation for log1p alone will add substantially to the current size. What I am saying is that the current code is small because it uses current functions or falls back to double versions. It doesn't really implement the low level stuff. Chuck
