Here is tests/reg-tests-1c.Rout.fail - http://pastebin.com/raw/3QVDUBwT
About the libm, I don't know which one R uses. musl has its on libm. http://git.musl-libc.org/cgit/musl/tree/src/math I think I also have openlibm installed, but I don't think that's used. Any more information I can give to help debug this? Thanks.
