Bug, sqrtf not implemented

[Nathan Sidwell]

Hi,
g++ silently introduces a prototype for `sqrtf' (amongst others). Thus the
following program compiles without error. Unfortunately, on this sparc-solaris
box, it fails to link, moaning about undefined reference to `sqrtf'. I'd
expected an error during compilation, just as if `sqrtf' had been a random
function like `foo'.

int main()
{
  sqrtf(1.0f);
  return 0;
}

nathan@manao:125>ss-g++  foo.cc -ansi -pedantic -W -Wall 
/var/tmp/ccHVcaaa.o: In function `main':
/var/tmp/ccHVcaaa.o(.text+0x10): undefined reference to `sqrtf'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
