// __ieee754_log(x)
// Return the logrithm of x
//
// Method :
//   1. Argument Reduction: find k and f such that
//			x = 2^k * (1+f),
//	   where  sqrt(2)/2 < 1+f < sqrt(2) .
//
//   2. Approximation of log(1+f).
//	Let s = f/(2+f) ; based on log(1+f) = log(1+s) - log(1-s)
//		 = 2s + 2/3 s**3 + 2/5 s**5 + .....,
//	     	 = 2s + s*R
//      We use a special Reme algorithm on [0,0.1716] to generate
// 	a polynomial of degree 14 to approximate R The maximum error
//	of this polynomial approximation is bounded by 2**-58.45. In
//	other words,
//		        2      4      6      8      10      12      14
//	    R(z) ~ lg1*s +lg2*s +lg3*s +lg4*s +lg5*s  +lg6*s  +lg7*s
//  	(the values of lg1 to lg7 are listed in the program)
//	and
//	    |      2          14          |     -58.45
//	    | lg1*s +...+lg7*s    -  R(z) | <= 2
//	    |                             |
//	Note that 2s = f - s*f = f - hfsq + s*hfsq, where hfsq = f*f/2.
//	In order to guarantee error in log below 1ulp, we compute log
//	by
//		log(1+f) = f - s*(f - R)	(if f is not too large)
//		log(1+f) = f - (hfsq - s*(hfsq+R)).	(better accuracy)
//
//	3. Finally,  log(x) = k*ln2 + log(1+f).
//			    = k*ln2_hi+(f-(hfsq-(s*(hfsq+R)+k*ln2_lo)))
//	   Here ln2 is split into two floating point number:
//			ln2_hi + ln2_lo,
//	   where n*ln2_hi is always exact for |n| < 2000.
//
// Special cases:
//	log(x) is NaN with signal if x < 0 (including -INF) ;
//	log(+INF) is +INF; log(0) is -INF with signal;
//	log(NaN) is that NaN with no signal.
//
// Accuracy:
//	according to an error analysis, the error is always less than
//	1 ulp (unit in the last place).
//
// Constants:
// The hexadecimal values are the intended ones for the following
// constants. The decimal values may be used, provided that the
// compiler will convert from decimal to binary accurately enough
// to produce the hexadecimal values shown.
