Attn Math/Sci People: Glibc with CORE_MATH Released

Attention: Mathematicians/Scientists

The GNU C Library, Glibc-2.44, is released.

This version incorporates the CORE-MATH functions which
provide correct rounding:

<https://inbox.sourceware.org/libc-announce/[email protected]/T/>

This is a major achievement and one for which that I have been
waiting.

But don't build just yet.  A minor issue has been discovered
and fixed:

<https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34465>

A patch is found in the discussion link for those who may not
want to wait for the back port.

IEEE754 only mandates correct rounding for arithmetic operations.
But CORE-MATH provides correct rounding for all the elementary
functions.  It is a significant advance for Glibc.
