I'm not sure if the new test is particularly meaningful, but at
least it
catches syntax errors in <math.h>.

This seems fine to me (with negative zero included in the testcase),

Oh.  How do I get a negative zero?  Would T{-0.0} be sufficient?  Or
should I

Yes, T{-0.0} or -T{0} should suffice.

Thanks.  Here is what I've committed.  Everything is optimized away
anyway (but I deliberately introduced a bug to make sure the test still
tests something).

I had to commit the attached follow-on fix to make

extern "C" {
#include <math.h>
}

work again.

math.h: Wrap C++ bits in extern "C++"

It is still common to include system header files in an extern "C"
block.  This means that exiting <math.h>'s own extern "C" block
is not sufficient to get back to C++ mode.  Use an extern "C++"
wrapper instead.

	* math/math.h [__cplusplus] (iszero): Wrap C++ bits in extern
	"C++", to override a potential extern "C" directive around the
	header file inclusion.
