--- Comment #1 from sgk@troutmask.apl.washington.edu ---
Compiled libm.  Did 'nm catrig.o'.  Found the following:

00000008 r pio2_lo
00000000 r tiny

What does 'r' mean?  nm(1) lacks a description.

A response of freebsd-hacker pointed to the GNU tools nm.1,
but FreeBSD-current uses Elftoolchain's nm.1.

In a second response on freebsd-hackers, I was informed that
a convention exists between uppercase and lowercase.  nm.1
from Elftoolchain does not contain a description of this
convention.
