New description:

 (1) Description for "arcsin" wrongly says it is "The inverse of the
 hyperbolic sine function" !!

 {{{
 arcsin?

 File:        /home/golam/foo/sage-4.0.1/local/lib/python2.5/site-
 packages/sage/functions/trig.py
 Type:        <class 'sage.functions.trig.Function_arcsin'>
 Definition:  arcsin(x, hold='False')
 Docstring:

         The inverse of the hyperbolic sine function.

         EXAMPLES::

             sage: arcsinh(0.5)
             0.481211825059603
             sage: arcsinh(1/2)
             arcsinh(1/2)
             sage: arcsinh(1 + 1.0*I)

 }}}

 (2) Is it also missing " ginac='acos' " in conversion dict?

 Both "arccos" and "arctan" have that conversion defined.
