Hello,
I think that one is a bug in the Mac OS X version of gcc - I have
never understood why it occurs. There's a note in the INSTALL file
that compiling with lower optimisation makes it go away.

I used Abramowitz & Stegun for the reduction formula. Gerard
Jungman's original implementation of the elliptic integrals is based
on the Carlson paper mentioned in ellint.c.

We don't have any functions for Hermite Polynomials at the moment.
