Maybe in principle but I couldn't find a single file in newlib which had only
an SPDX indicator. All 63 had SPDX and license text.

I don't see changing the pattern for this file and I doubt we will be deleting
copyright/license text from at least FreeBSD sourced code since that will
make it harder to track against the upstream.

I had a patch which added them to the stub support but they aren't
generic C/POSIX methods and there was a comment that they
should be target specific.

By keeping them in the machine sys/fenv.h and defining them
in the machine specific fenv.c, I thought that addressed that.

I forgot to do that. First sentence rewritten.

I think _feinitialize can now be static. I moved it to the top of the file

Doing that lets the prototype and a CYGWIN specific comment in the sys/fenv.h
disappear.

Does that sound ok?
