Description of problem:
The log, log10, and log2 functions are all supposed to give a domain error
if the argument is negative (and log1p is supposed to give a domain error
if the argument is less than -1).  log, log10, and log1p do this, but log2
does not.


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Compile and run the following code:

#include <errno.h>
#define __USE_ISOC99 1
#include <math.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

main ()
{
  errno = 0;
  printf ("log(-1) returns %g; ", log (-1));
  printf ("error is %s.\n", strerror (errno));
  if (errno != EDOM)
    printf ("\t(Error should have been %s!)\n", strerror (EDOM));

  errno = 0;
  printf ("log2(-1) returns %g; ", log2 (-1));
  printf ("error is %s.\n", strerror (errno));
  if (errno != EDOM) {
    printf ("\t(Error should have been %s!)\n", strerror (EDOM));
    return 1;
  }
  return 0;
}


Actual Results:  log(-1) returns nan; error is Numerical argument out of
domain.
log2(-1) returns nan; error is Success.
	(Error should have been Numerical argument out of domain!)


Expected Results:  log(-1) returns nan; error is Numerical argument out of
domain.
log2(-1) returns nan; error is Numerical argument out of domain.


Additional info:

Since log2 is relatively new to the C standard, the implementor may not
have gotten around to making it conform yet.  WG14/N869 7.12.6.10 reads:

2	"The log2 functions compute the base-2 logarithm of x.  A domain error
occurs if the argument is less than zero.  A range error may occur if the
argument is zero."

A fix will probably require a wrapper function.
