       Hi Kennon,

> Thank you, Paul.  It looks like it would be worth a try as the current log2 implementation from Cygwin is clearly not optimal for either speed or accuracy.  This may be a stupid question, but what would be the easiest way to incorporate this into open source software?  Should I rename the function and copy the (slightly modified) source code into the distribution?

yes, the file is self-content, just rename cr_log2() into log2(),
making sure you keep the copyright paragraph at the beginning.

For ease of maintenance, also indicate which commit of CORE-MATH you used,
and document changes if you need some.

Feel free to contact us ([email protected]) in case of problem.

Best regards,
Paul
