newlib's libc now has dependencies on libm

I've just seen a sudden large increase in the number of gcc testsuite
failures for ARM after updating my newlib sources. It looks like libc
has quietly (probably erroneously) grown a link-time dependency on libm:
libc.a:lib_a-strtod.o: U __fpclassifyd
libc.a:lib_a-svfprintf.o: U __fpclassifyd
libc.a:lib_a-svfscanf.o: U __fpclassifyd
libc.a:lib_a-svfwprintf.o: U __fpclassifyd
libc.a:lib_a-svfwscanf.o: U __fpclassifyd
libc.a:lib_a-vfprintf.o: U __fpclassifyd
libc.a:lib_a-vfscanf.o: U __fpclassifyd
libc.a:lib_a-vfwprintf.o: U __fpclassifyd
libc.a:lib_a-vfwscanf.o: U __fpclassifyd
libc.a:lib_a-wcstod.o: U __fpclassifyd
libm.a:lib_a-s_fpclassify.o:00000000 T __fpclassifyd
My guess is that this was caused by the following change:
2009-06-16 Craig Howland <howland@LGSInnovations.com>
* libc/include/math.h: Simplify fpclassify, isinf, isnan, and signbit
macros to remove un-necessary extension use. isinf and isnan also
changed to use fpclassify. isfinite macro modified to run faster by
only calling fpclassify once instead of possibly twice.
