The only thing I can think of here is if you are running out of disk space to
create the intermediate file. How much free space do you have in your /
partition? If you have more disk space elsewhere try setting TMPDIR.

Hmm...

I suspect that they're in one of the other libraries (libraries with term in

It is in the comp set. I just pulled it out of the 1.2 release dir on the ftp
site and checked. Its too big to sensibly send by email.

bash$ cat comp.?? | gzip -dc - | tar tvf - | grep libm.a
