People complained in the past.  And even if we add C99 facilities to
the library, we should it in a the way recommanded for C90 facilities
(C++98, C++03) and also as proposed in the C99 math functions proposal
(C++ future revision).

  #include <cmath>

  class Float;
  Float cos(Float);

is not supposed to cause a clash.  Why should fpclassify do?
