* math/math.h (_Mfloat_, _Mlong_double_): New macros, defined iff not already defined to float, long double. Use those macros for _Mdouble_ defns when including mathcalls.h. * math/Makefile [$(long-double-fcts) != yes] (CPPFLAGS): Append -D_Mlong_double_=double. Add more -lm functions to -lc because ldexp uses them. * math/Makefile (calls): Add s_finite, s_copysign, s_scalbn, s_modf. (routines): Remove s_modf, add s_frexpf, s_ldexpf; all but frexp and ldexp have both f and l code, and those have f though not l code. memcpy for possibly overlapping strings.

* We have incorporated the 4.4 BSD `db' library (version 1.85). New header
files <db.h> and <mpool.h> provide a rich set of functions for several
types of simple databases stored in memory and in files, and <ndbm.h> is
- an old `ndbm'-compatbile interface using the `db' functions.

* New macro `strdupa' copies a string like `strdup', but uses local stack
space from `alloca' instead of dynamic heap space from `malloc'.
