+Subject: [PATCH] core: remove boost::math in favor of std cmath
+
+YA Boost removal!!!
+
+Justification
+---
+const int if_freq_sign = boost::math::sign(fe_conn.get_if_freq());
+_dsp_freq_offset = if_freq * (-if_freq_sign);
+// boost::math::sign : 1 if x > 0, -1 if x < 0, and 0 if x is zero.
+// ==> if if_freq_sign > 0 then * by -1 else +1 (effectively)
+
+// std::signbit : true if arg is negative, false otherwise
+// ==> need 'not' of input argument to invert for same result as prior algorithm
+double fe_if_freq = fe_conn.get_if_freq();
+if (!std::signbit(fe_if_freq)) {
+  if_freq *= -1.0;
+}
+---
+The above should result in the same algorithm except possibly
+if fe_if_freq is exactly 0.0 in which case the results might be
+off by the sign (+0.0 versus -0.0).
