Log:
Exploit skew-symmetry to avoid an operation: -sin(x-A) = sin(A-x). This
gives a tiny but hopefully always free optimization in the 2 quadrants
to which it applies. On Athlons, it reduces maximum latency by 4 cycles
in these quadrants but has usually has a smaller effect on total time
(typically ~2 cycles (~5%), but sometimes 8 cycles when the compiler
generates poor code).
