Luc Maisonobe commented on MATH-611:
------------------------------------

This looks good to me.
Many, many thanks for this much needed patch!

My only minor comment would be to replace the two occurrences of
        double eps = FastMath.pow(2.0, -52.0);
and one occurrence of
        double tiny = FastMath.pow(2.0, -966.0);

by static constants initialized using the power of two literal notation:

private static final EPS  = 0x1.0p-52;
private static final TINY = 0x1.0p-966;


We should have looked back at JAMA earlier. We only used the principles of the 
API (using interfaces and extended it slightly), but not using the code was a 
mistake I should probably be blamed for.

Mikkel, do you want to commit this ?
