According to Brin:
> I agree Forget about the p_sin func, but make anlias, ie #define p_sin(x)
> sin(x)

This doesn't change anything since the GPC-compiled program and the
run time library communicate through the linker, and a `#define' alias
is invisible for the linker.

There is, however, a "linker alias" we could use to define the symbol
`_p_sin' as an alias for `sin'.  Something like "__asm__ (.foobar "_p_sin",
"sin").  Somebody knows?  Should we use it?

BTW, Neal (or Brin? ), you bumped against my News spam
