28  * Method :
29  *	1. Polynomial approximation: let s = x/(2+x).
30  *	   Based on log(1+x) = log(1+s) - log(1-s)
31  *		 = 2s + 2/3 s**3 + 2/5 s**5 + .....,
32  *
33  *	   (log(1+x) - 2s)/s is computed by
34  *
35  *	       z*(L1 + z*(L2 + z*(... (L7 + z*L8)...)))
36  *
37  *	   where z=s*s. (See the listing below for Lk's values.) The
38  *	   coefficients are obtained by a special Remez algorithm.
39  *
40  * Accuracy:
41  *	Assuming no rounding error, the maximum magnitude of the approximation
42  *	error (absolute) is 2**(-58.49) for IEEE double, and 2**(-63.63)
43  *	for VAX D format.
44  *
45  * Constants:
46  * The hexadecimal values are the intended ones for the following constants.
47  * The decimal values may be used, provided that the compiler will convert
48  * from decimal to binary accurately enough to produce the hexadecimal values
49  * shown.
