 Severity:  normal  |    Keywords:        
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
 Here is a patch to simplify math configuration: instead of relying on
 heuristics for presence of some function, each function is checked
 separately:
  - To avoid long configuration times on standard compliant platforms, a
 check_funcs_once function to distutils config command has been added.
 Build times with gcc on linux and mac os x are the same as before.
  - I have tested the patch on numpy: it passes all tests on linux (32
 bits), mac os X, mingw and Visual Studio 2003.
