Summary

0001253: [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.
