Actually is faster than Montgomery on my AMD64 (and probably much faster on a P4)
-- Updated the manual a bit
-- Ok so I haven't done the textbook work yet... My current freelance gig has landed me in France till the
end of Feb/05. Once I get back I'll have tons of free time and I plan to go to town on the book.
As of this release the API will freeze. At least until the book catches up with all the changes. I welcome
bug reports but new algorithms will have to wait.

Update to 0.9-2:
Version 0.9-2, 2006/02/13
Fix minor typo in wle.fracdiff.Rd and in wle.var.test.Rd. Rewrite some part
of wle.vonmises.R and wle.wrappednormal.R since there were a problem on
looking for mutiple roots.
Version 0.9-1, 2005/12/6
Set up a NAMESPACE file.
Functions wle.wrappednormal and wle.vonmises use atan2 call instead of atan.
mle.aic has a new argument 'se' so that standard errors are reported for the
parameters of each submodel. wle.fracdiff and related functions are partialy
rewritten.
Version 0.9, 2005/04/16
This version should works under gcc-4.0 too.
Many fortran sources are removed since already included in R (blas functions)
Function qrgnin.f is modified by Prof. B. Ripley so that it does not use
entry point.
Version 0.8-1, 2005/04/10
Fixed bugs in wlestepwise.f and mlestepwise.f
The calls to the packages ts and ctest are removed.
The function wle.aic.ar (and its summaries) is added.
Add the dataset rocky
Version 0.8, 2004/10/05
Fix file wle.lm.summaries.Rd
Release 1.6 (2006-06-19) adds various bug fixes, plus support for making
dimensions WITHOUT dimvars (coordinate variables), although I think this
is a bad idea in general. ALSO, the default behavior for put.var.ncdf
with unlimited variables and NO specified start and count parameters has
changed! Before, the default was to append to the end of the existing
variable. Now, the default is to assume a start of 1 along each
dimension, and a count of the current length of each dimension. This
really can be ambiguous when using an unlimited dimension. I always
specify both start and count when writing to a variable with an
unlimited dimension, and suggest you do as well. I make require this in
a future release, as it seems to cause people problems.
since they always need a C compiler, even when the source code is
completely in C++.
For some other packages, stated in the comment that a C compiler is
really not needed.
changes:
* Added support for constants e, log2(e), log10(e), ln(2), ln(10), pi,
pi/2, pi/4, 1/pi, 2/pi, 2/sqrt(pi), sqrt(2) and sqrt(1/2).
* Fixed bug with using global instead of evaluator specific symbol table
variable in evaluator_get_variables() function.
and add a new helper target and script, "show-buildlink3", that outputs
a listing of the buildlink3.mk files included as well as the depth at
which they are included.
For example, "make show-buildlink3" in fonts/Xft2 displays:
zlib
fontconfig
iconv
zlib
freetype2
expat
freetype2
Xrender
renderproto
* Correct bug in configure script: --enable-portable-binary option was ignored!
* Threads compilation fix on AIX: prefer xlc_r to cc_r, and don't use
either if we are using gcc.
* Updated FAQ to note that Apple gcc 4.0.1 on MacOS/Intel is broken,
and suggest a workaround. configure script now detects Core/Duo arch.
* Use -maltivec when checking for altivec.h.
set OVERRIDE_DIRDEPTH to find any libtool scripts deeper in the WRKSRC
tree unless they're named something other than "libtool".
SHLIBTOOL_OVERRIDE generally doesn't need to be specified either -- just
define it to the empty list and shlibtool-override will look for libtool
scripts.
C libraries *before* we throw the AC_LANG([C++]) switch. This makes
the generated configure script use the C compiler/linker instead of
the C++ compiler/linker when running tests. This avoids errors like
these based on not correctly getting the function signature correct:
conftest.cc:36: error: nonnull argument with out-of-range operand
number (arg 1, operand 2)
This error was causing the configure script to not detect *gettext()
routines and not building and installing the *.mo files. This fixes
the error noted in the bulk build results:
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/pkgsrc-bulk/2006/06/20/0000.html
Changes since 12.5.15:
Allow curly brackets ("{}") as parentheses.
Allow all taylor command input on the command line.
Add taylor command to tests.
Added -u option (Unbuffered mode). Previously output was always unbuffered.
Fixed compilation failure with some versions of GCC, when using readline.
Made some nice changes to "gcd.c".
Added "solve" as a command.
Adjust copyright dates and file comments in all source files.
Fix display of -0 (now displays as 0).
Restore matho-sumsq to Prime Number Tools.
* True RPN mode with stack manipulation
* Dutch translation (from Jaap Woldringh and the Dutch KDE translation team)
* New application icons (from Thomas Lübking)
* API documentation (approximately halfway)
* Enhanced edit matrix/vector dialogs, with widget for GTK+
* View/edit/insert matrix/vector menu items (GTK+)
* Combined dialog for number bases in result and expression (GTK+)
* Fix comma as decimal sign with KDE GUI
* "Convert to Best Unit" and "Convert to Base Units" was swapped (KDE)
* Ignore commas (with dot as decimal sign) in numbers and option to use dot as
thousands separator
* Fix removal of factors in simplifaction ("1 kg m/s" was simplified to
"1000 m/s")
* Fix libqalculate.so unresolved symbols
* Fix bug that caused all number arguments to require numbers to be rational
* Interpret 0x..., 0o... and 0b... as hexadecimal, octal and binary numbers,
respectively, when base is decimal

* Set vectors and matrices as the first argument by default
* New functions
* Fix integration
* New unit: psi
* New name format in data files for more flexible translations
* Change some dubious mathematical wordings
Don't use __sighandler_t at all, it is not standard and at least on
DrgaonFly means something completely different. Also change the typedef
to match what signal actually expects. Fix some more minor glitches
for DragonFly.
This version contains several minor fixups and removes a couple of bad
bugs such as NA-handling of mean() for integer vectors.
Changes 2.3.0
This version contains several changes and additions, mostly incremental.
Xfractint draws a wide variety of fractals. Xfractint is a port of the
IBM PC program fractint. Xfractint has online documentation which
should be referenced for most operation information. Note that the
online documentation is from fractint, and does not always accurately
describe xfractint.
Add locale message for sv. Bump revision.
Fix configure to detect libintl correctly on NetBSD.
Don't remove the entry again, fix the script if necessary!
Changes:
- Excess variables cleanup of taylor command.
- Changed argument of push command from an equation number to an equation
number range.
- Added easy selection of equation spaces, just type the number at the
prompt.
- Allow flist command when Mathomatic is compiled as a library.
all PEAR packages to php?-pear-* and all Apache packages to ap13-* or
ap2-* respectively. Add new variables to simplify the Makefile
handling. Add CONFLICTS on the old names. Reset revisions of bumped
packages. ap-php will now depend on the default Apache and PHP version.
All programs using it have an implicit option of the Apache version
as well.
OK from jlam@ and adrianp@.
Changes:
A number of minor changes.
Fixes and improvements to the Mathomatic Command Reference.
Upgraded clear and set commands to accept more than one argument.
Gave real and imaginary commands a useful argument.
Fixed a sloppiness in command line parsing in function get_range().
Code cleanup.
* Performance improvements for Intel EMT64.
* Performance improvements for large-size transforms with SIMD.
* Cycle counter support for Intel icc and Visual C++ on x86-64.
* In fftw-wisdom tool, replaced obsolete --impatient with --measure.
* Fixed compilation failure with AIX/xlc; thanks to Joseph Thomas.
* Windows DLL support for Fortran API (added missing __declspec(dllexport)).
* SSE/SSE2 code works properly (i.e. disables itself) on older 386 and 486
CPUs lacking a CPUID instruction; thanks to Eric Korpela.
Cutting planes of two new classes were implemented: mixed cover
cuts and clique cuts. On API level this feature can be enabled
by setting control parameter LPX_K_USECUTS passed to the routine
lpx_intopt. In glpsol this feature is available through the
command-line options --cover and --clique. For more details see
the reference manual.
Now the routines lpx_read_mps and lpx_read_freemps support LI
bound type. It is similar to LO, however, indicates the column
as of integer kind.
Changes:
Improved matho-primes by making primes buffer variable size.
Added "set factor_integers" option.
Removed "simplify poly" option, it was rarely useful.
Code cleanup, commenting, and speed optimization.
Improved simplification, added the fixed problem ("tests/linear.in") to the tests.

** Added an error check to trap multifit calls with fewer observations
than parameters. Previously calling the multifit routines with n<p
would cause invalid memory access.
** Added the Debye unit to physical constants.
** Added cumulative distribution functions for the discrete
distributions, including binomial, poisson, geometric, negative
binomial, pascal and hypergeometric.
** Added the functions gsl_cdf_beta_{Pinv,Qinv} and
gsl_cdf_fdist_{Pinv,Qinv} for computing the inverse of the cumulative
beta and F distributions.
** Added the multilinear fit estimator function gsl_multifit_linear_est
for computing model values and their errors.
** Avoid division by zero in gsl_multimin_fdfminimizer_vector_bfgs
if the step-size becomes too small.
** Users on DEC Alpha systems will need to specify their desired IEEE
arithmetic options via CFLAGS when building the library, as these are
no longer added automatically.
** Added new random variate generators gsl_ran_gaussian_ziggurat
and gsl_ran_gamma_mt for the Gaussian and Gamma distributions based on
the Marsaglia-Tsang ziggurat and fast gamma methods.
** Improved the speed of the exponential power distribution
gsl_ran_exppow.
** Improved the speed of the Gaussian ratio method by adding quadratic
bounds in gsl_ran_gaussian_ratio_method.

PKGLOCALEDIR and which install their locale files directly under
${PREFIX}/${PKGLOCALEDIR} and sort the PLIST file entries. From now
on, pkgsrc/mk/plist/plist-locale.awk will automatically handle
transforming the PLIST to refer to the correct locale directory.
Algorithmic changes
* Considerably improved performance of number input.
Changes 1.1.10:
Implementation changes
* Removed the vptr of modular integer and univariate polynomial
classes in order to fix some crashes in that sector of CLN. Code
using this needs to be recompiled.
* Many more operator signatures make the integration of CLN types with
float/double easier.
Other changes
* Several compilation fixes.
* Made it possible to cross-compile CLN.
RECOMMENDED is removed. It becomes ABI_DEPENDS.
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED.foo becomes BUILDLINK_ABI_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.foo becomes BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS does not change.
IGNORE_RECOMMENDED (which defaulted to "no") becomes USE_ABI_DEPENDS
which defaults to "yes".
Added to obsolete.mk checking for IGNORE_RECOMMENDED.
I did not manually go through and fix any aesthetic tab/spacing issues.
I have tested the above patch on DragonFly building and packaging
subversion and pkglint and their many dependencies.
I have also tested USE_ABI_DEPENDS=no on my NetBSD workstation (where I
have used IGNORE_RECOMMENDED for a long time). I have been an active user
of IGNORE_RECOMMENDED since it was available.
As suggested, I removed the documentation sentences suggesting bumping for
"security" issues.
As discussed on tech-pkg.
I will commit to revbump, pkglint, pkg_install, createbuildlink separately.
Note that if you use wip, it will fail! I will commit to pkgsrc-wip
later (within day).
