Description of problem:
What problem/issue/behavior are you having trouble with?  What do you expect to see?

We are finding that our application is affected by a bug in the RHEL 7 math library, where errno is not being set for bessel functions such as j0, j1, jn, and also exp2.  In the case of exp2 it IS setting the fe exception – so we can catch that one.  But the j0-n are a problem since the man page documentation on RHEL 6 specifically states they do NOT set the IEEE fe exception for fetestexcept(), but they should be setting errno.

This seems to match this bug report:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18611


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

All RHEL 7 flavors running glibc older that 2.23
also all glibc newer than 2.12

How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run reproducer in jtest.tar
2.
3.

Actual results:

glibc-2.26-24.fc27.x86_64

It has the patch in https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18611 
and it does NOT do the correct thing.

I'm suspecting that the wrapper functions to the __ieee754_jXXX functions need to
be more like the RHEL 6 versions


Expected results:

RHEL 6 glibc provides results which are expected by the user.
