The problem isn't the compiler at all, it's the subroutines in
libm.a.  (The compiler doesn't generate inline instructions for fsin
etc unless the macro INLINE_MATH is explicitly defined).

libm.a contains stub routines that contain the fxxx instructions.
To speed things up, write your own versions of the functions that
you need and call them instead of using libm.

So does anyone know if there is source code for a good math library
available on the net?  Does GNU have on?
