@philnik777 I was going to go down the route of adding `__lgamma_r` to `libc++.dylib` and dancing around back-deployment, but then I found out that GCC provides `__builtin_lgamma_r` while Clang doesn't: https://godbolt.org/z/4jWrWzf6n
We [already provide](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/e90ab31024a7ad906db45e229fdb0f2fda7b2107/libcxx/include/__math/gamma.h#L26) definitions for `std::lgamma` in our headers and those forward to the compiler builtins. It would feel a bit silly to add an indirection through the dylib to implement `__lgamma_r` when Clang just seems to be missing a builtin (which would increase GCC compatibility).
Do you agree that requesting a Clang builtin seems like the better approach? Then we would simply use the builtin from here unconditionally.
