-1 from me as well.  Various root finding and minimization algorithms rely 
(perhaps) incorrect on the functions transitioning smoothly across the inputs.

Inside the code for math.log10() and math.log2(), it would be reasonable to use 
the C99 functions rather than having us compute them indirectly.  But the 
math.log(x, b) function should be left alone IMO.
