no, of course, I wan't :) anyway, we should have possibility not 
compiling math library at least. do you agree?

I like LNUM patch, the reason is simple - we need the 64bit
integers for a nice bussines (imagine a money, file size, disks
space, etc.) calculation and the float point numbers for
creating graphs (percent fractions, for example).

 LHdF> what other libraries have such problems?

they don't, AFAIK
