/sys$common/syshlp/HELPLIB.HLB  —  CPML  lgamma()  Description
    lgamma() returns the logarithm of the absolute value of gamma
    of x, or ln(|G(x)|), where G is the gamma function. The sign of
    gamma of x is returned in the external integer variable signgam
    as +1 or -1. The x parameter cannot be 0 or a negative integer.

    gamma() returns the natural log of the gamma function and so is
    functionally equivalent to lgamma(). Because of this, gamma()  is
    marked TO BE WITHDRAWN in the X/Open Portability Guide, Revision
    4 (XPG4).
