>Description:

	static linking can fail on netbsd-5 due to conflicting
	definitions of finite() and scalbn()

	I don't know if there's another PR or not (I can't find one
	searching for the error messages), but there was mention on
	current-users:

	http://mail-index.netbsd.org/current-users/2010/02/27/msg012748.html

>How-To-Repeat:

	observe from a build of netbsd-5 with LDSTATIC=-static:

/rest/work/woods/m-NetBSD-5/lib/libc/../libm/src/s_finite.c:28: multiple definition of `finite'
