            Bug ID: 216866
           Summary: math tgammal(3) uses a poor algorithm due to clang
                    kludge
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: standards
          Assignee: freebsd-standards at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: sgk at troutmask.apl.washington.edu

The algorithm used by FreeBSD libm for tgammal severely reduces both
its precision and domain.  See msun/src/imprecise.c.
