The Copyright on this code is unclear. For example, in
single/e_rem_pio2.c lines 1-6:
/*
* e_rem_pio2.c
*
* Copyright (c) 1999-2018, Arm Limited.
* SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
*/
Then lines 16-18:
/*
* Simple cases: all nicked from the fdlibm version for speed.
*/
The original fdlibm licenses applies ot the nicked lines.
