The nextDown method is in FpUtils, but not currently in java.lang.Math.  
Assuming nextDown is added to Math, those references should be 
eliminated too.

Uses of methods available in java.lang.Math and switched to that entry point as opposed to the sun.misc one.  Additionally, the sun.misc methods whose implementation was moved were also deprecated.
