As noted in bug 6803, scalbn fails to set errno on overflow and
underflow. This patch fixes this by making scalbn an alias of ldexp,
which has exactly the same semantics (for floating-point types with
radix 2) and already has wrappers that deal with setting errno,
instead of an alias of the internal __scalbn (which ldexp calls).
Notes:
* Where compat symbols were defined for scalbn functions, I didn't
change what they point to (to keep the patch minimal), so such
compat symbols continue to go directly to the non-errno-setting
functions.
* Mike, I didn't do anything with the IA64 versions of these
functions, where I think both the ldexp and scalbn functions already
deal with setting errno. As a cleanup (not needed to fix this bug)
however you might want to make those functions into aliases for
IA64; there is no need for them to be separate function
implementations at all.
* This concludes the fix for bug 6803 since the scalb and scalbln
cases of that bug were fixed some time ago.
Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 and powerpc.
