And that is still used.  C99, as an example, calls the functions
carg(3), cargf(3) and cargl(3), for operations on double complex,
float complex and long double complex values, following its convention
of using an f suffix for float, l suffix for long double and a c
prefix for complex.

It would be reasonable for perl6 to have .arg to match .angle.
