We already have one (an essentially identical copy for alpha, i386, ia64,
and mips) in libc.  We don't need two, or one in different libraries for
different arches.  The ones in libc seem to be of lower quality.  They
are missing special cases for Inf and Nan.

We may need an frexpf function, but we don't have a man page for it.
The man page for frexp is in libc so it wasn't changed when msun's
frexp was cloned to form frexpf.
