Please see the description I posted at 
<https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2018-03/msg00001.html> discussing various 
examples of what might be involved for particular functions, and see if 
you can identify some of the relevant parts of the GCC sources for 
existing built-in math.h functions that would serve as a guide to the 
sorts of things that would be needed for implementing the new functions.
