Precision be damned.  Who wants to have to write their own set of trig
functions for fixed point? :-(

You'd think that by now there would be an embedded system compiler with
built-in support for fixed point math, including a nice set of library math
functions.  Is there?  The only language I'm aware of that has explicit
support for moving the fraction point around is PL/1 (and perhaps cobol, but
that's a bit different...)
