The real problem is not the libm. In libm, hypot calls cabs, so they may
as well be together. The problem is really libF77.a. There is a cabs.c
there (/source/bsd*/rt/usr.lib/libF77/cabs.c) which perhaps shouldn't
be.

The vax & rt's libm.a/cabs.c is the same, only the RT adds cabs to the
fortran library.

Interesting enough, ultrix has the same problem. Could it be that
someone shipped a fortran package at some time from IEEE which had these
problems?
