For starters, math functions. There aren't many libc math functions handled
there, BTW. When I was working on the original patch I dug through history
- a couple were added (pow and sqrt) I think, and sqrt was then backed off
due to some problems. Even with pow there are other constrains such as
errno (the builtin is not generated when we want errno, naturally, even
without -fno-builtins). Perhaps I can make the target hook more generic -
controlling all math libraries (the BIfoo ones, not BI__builtin_foo)
instead of just pow?
