Public bug reported:

glibc 2.23 has a broken implementation of cos.

To see that, enter "=cos(1.5689793435451356)" into gnumeric or localc.  A 
correct result is close
to 0, but libc and thus gnumeric/localc return ~1.

As per https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20357 this is
fixed in 2.24

Suggestion: backport fix for that.


Seen on Ubuntu 16.04 (well, Mint 18).
