Have you looked into the Fortran routines that Argonne National Labs has
available (netlib)?  If not, mail to:

	netlib@anl-mcs.arpa

with a subject line of:

	send index

They have A LOT of math routines (several hundred I think) that do exactly
what you want, though they are all, as far as I know, written in Fortran.
This should not really be a problem since you can link Fortran with C.
