Not really, its just nicer, saves 64 bytes per context and some time on 
subsequent inits,
and might help with SIMD because more can be hardcoded into the assembly.
I don't think the hardcoded tables flag helps much nowadays, binary size seems 
more
important to users shipping the libraries. Also it might improve precision 
somewhat
for floats if the compiling machine has a different libc than the user's 
machine, and the
sin/cos approximations used on the compiling machine's libc are worse.
