Bug #: 13883
Summary: cexp inaccurate for large imaginary part on x86
Product: glibc
Version: 2.15
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: math
AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
ReportedBy: jsm28@gcc.gnu.org
Classification: Unclassified
Host: i?86-*-*
x86 (32-bit only) has its own implementations of cexp, cexpf and cexpl which
use fsincos with inaccurate argument reduction and so suffer from the same
problems sincos did when it used fsincos (e.g., cexp (0x1p1023 * I) has no
relation to the correct value). These should probably be removed (with tests
for arguments with large imaginary part added similar to those for sincos) so
the generic C version is used for x86.
