Yes, and it feels like an even more appropriate place for
org.apache.commons.math3.util.FastMath (and maybe associated classes)
due to the location of java.lang.Math.

I don't think so.
I'm in favour of "small" components.

Take into account that Commons Lang is probably less stable
than "FastMath": CL's top-level package name is now "lang3"
whereas this functionality would be located in a package whose
name would never change.

Also, since the JDK itself is going to be "modular", it is a
bit odd to go in the opposite direction.

For the same reason, [io] might be moved to [lang], too.

And [compress], [crypto], [imaging], [dbutils], [logging], [net].
