Dave, me thinks you answered before trying it yourself...

I agree with Shashank that it should not be an AttributeError:

>>> import umath
>>> c = umath.cos  # note: no error, so it's there
>>> class test:
...     pass
...
>>> c(test)
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
AttributeError: cos

BTW, it generalizes to umath.sin. I'm considering testing other functions,
but I think it would be easier to write a large automated test procedure for
an exhaustive study of the subject ;)

Definitely. Get this resolved before doing anything else.
