apparently because tanh(-0.) loses the sign of zero on that platform.
If true, this is a bug in FreeBSD.
Added a configure test to verify this. I still need to figure out
how best to deal with this failure.
The patch also adds acosh, asinh, atanh, log1p and copysign to all platforms. Finally it fixes differences between platforms like different results or exceptions for edge cases. Have fun :)
The patch adds wrappers for the Linux epoll syscalls and the BSD kqueue syscalls. Thanks to Thomas Herve and the Twisted people for their support and help.

-no-cpp-precomp, and -mno-fused-madd from configure.
* r22183 added -no-cpp-precomp, which
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2005-12/msg00368.html claims hasn't been
needed since gcc-3.1.
* r25607 added -Wno-long-double to avoid a warning in
Include/objimpl.h (issue 525481). The long double is still there,
but OSX 10.4's gcc no longer warns about it.
* r33666 fixed issue 775892 on OSX 10.3 by adding -mno-fused-madd,
which changed the sign of some float 0s. Tim Peters said it wasn't
a real issue anyway, and it no longer causes test failures.
Fixes issue #1779871.
The bundled libffi copy is now in sync with the recently released
libffi3.0.4 version, apart from some small changes to
Modules/_ctypes/libffi/configure.ac.
I gave up on using libffi3 files on os x.
Instead, static configuration with files from pyobjc is used.
Georg Brandl has added fchmod() and fchown(). I've contributed lchown but I'm not able to test it on Linux. However it should be available on Mac and some other flavors of Unix.
I've made a quick test of fchmod() and fchown() on my system. They are working as expected.
In addition to testing positive numbers, verify negative numbers work in configure.
In order to avoid compiler warnings on OS X 10.4, also change the order of the check
for the format character to use (PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T) in the sprintf format
for Py_ssize_t. This patch changes PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T from "" to "l" if it wasn't
defined at configure time. Need to verify the buildbot results.
Backport candidate (if everyone thinks this patch can't be improved).
configure uses similar compiler flags as setup.py when doing the zlib test.
Without this patch configure would use the first shared library on the linker
path, with this patch it uses the first shared or static library on that path
just like setup.py.
