------- Comment #6 from xerxes at zafena.se  2010-05-26 10:39 -------
Created an attachment (id=342)
 --> (http://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=342&action=view)
openjdk/jdk 26may-java.lang.Math.libm.patch

The attached patch fixes this bug by making
java.lang.Math and
java.lang.Random
by making them use a new class java.lang.LibmMath internally that in turn uses
the running systems libm implementation.

This will make java.lang.Math more accurate for computation of trancendental
number aproximation, give a speed boost for math in the interpreter and will
make the interpreter and JIT produce same accurately rounded results.

Cheers
Xerxes
