Confirmed with current sources.  The patch helps with some cases (and since
it's basically making the same changes to three files, might be just small
enough to use without a copyright assignment) but you still get underflow in
cases where the result should have a subnormal imaginary part (e.g. an argument
of 710 + i).  The same issues will apply to ctan.

Fixed for both ctan and ctanh functions by:

commit bcc8d6617ba029c288fff9680a02b9a3b1caa9c0

    Fix ctan, ctanh overflow (bug 11521).

(using the formula from the patch attached to this bug to address overflow from
multiplication by 2 in computing the argument to sincos, and to address
cancellation in computing denominators close to 0, but using a different
approach to address the case where both numerator and denominator overflow so
that subnormal results are properly generated and spurious overflow exceptions
are avoided).

C99 program that demonstrates the problem

Without the patch this is the output:

Expect: 1 0	Got: nan 0
Expect: 1 0	Got: nan 0
Expect: 1 0	Got: nan 0
Expect: -1 0	Got: nan 0
Expect: -1 0	Got: nan 0
Expect: -1 0	Got: nan 0

With the patch applied:

Expect: 1 0	Got: 1 0
Expect: 1 0	Got: 1 0
Expect: 1 0	Got: 1 0
Expect: -1 0	Got: -1 0
Expect: -1 0	Got: -1 0
