There's probably an hours work by either stephen@ or myself to adapt the work I did on cephes in Sage to a standalone FreeBSD port. Unfortunately, both stephen@ & I are currently otherwise occupied and other comments in this thread suggest that the inclusion of such a port would be strongly opposed. Note that cephes isn't "slow but accurate" - it's reasonably fast but naive and therefore dodgy in edge cases. -- Peter Jeremy
