Changes to fdlibm code should be review on core-libs-dev rather than build-dev.

However, given the nature of the code, I am not inclined to approach changes to fdlibm to work around new C compiler warnings.

If someone else is solving the problem, they might choose what works best for 
them, I am glad if that happens.
But till something happens, I am (very) build-impaired, or I can just make all 
my changes to a downrev
version of the source and hope that the patches apply.

David,

I think it is more appropriate to look to compile fdlibm with a different set 
of flags, as has been done in at least previous iterations of the build system.

Thanks,

Rhetorical question, actually — someone clearly did.
Someone also did not test it with gcc 4.8.recent on Ubuntu 14 or Clang.current 
on Mavericks.

One of the offending directories is fdlibm, and I have experience with that, so 
since I can’t
get anything else done, I will see about cleaning up that code.
