Summary:                    [PATCH] clean up some warnings in libm found when
building on ia64
Description: 
Several files in libm had compilation warnings -- specifically, e_pow.c,
s_ceil.c, s_floor.c, s_ldexp.c and s_modf.c.  In all cases, local variable
names were shadowing global variable names.  This is _not_ a big deal;
personally, I prefer to have no compiler warnings, if at all possible. 
So, variable names were changed slightly to remove the warnings.

Not knowing enough about the history of these files, they may be desirable
as is; this patch is not required for functionality or correctness -- it
only makes the GCC warnings go away.

as noted on mailing list, we try to stay as close to glibc as possible,
including these annoying shadows ;(
