What happened is that an include file had #include <math.h>, but didn't
need it, so when it was removed, it had to be added to a few C files.
Not sure why limit.h is involved though, but the include trimming does
sometimes have that affect because limit was used somewhere else.

This is why the cleaning isn't done for every release.
