On a domain error, lround() and llround() correctly raise an exception, but do
not set errno.  They should set errno to EDOM.


Background: 
On error, many glibc math functions both set errno and raise an exception
(fetestexcept(3)).  For example, the following  function all do this: acos(),
asin(), cosh(), sinh(), acosh(), asinh(), exp(), exp2(), ldexp(), log(),
log10(), log2().  However, there is much inconsistency.  Some functions raise an
exception, but don't set errno.  Some functions set errno for some errors, but
not others.  A few set errno, but don't raise an exception.  This series of bug
reports documents deviations from what I consider the ideal: all functions
should BOTH set errno AND raise an exception for all errors.

All of these reports relate to tests on glibc 2.8 (as provided by SUSE 11.0).
