GCC already has __builtin_cexpi for this, so I think you can introduce cexpi
implementation in libc, and then adjust expand_builtin_cexpi appropriately.
I wonder if it would be possible to add a fallback cexpi implementation to
libgcc.a that would be picked by the linker if there's no such symbol in libm?
