1891	Problems with acosh, asech, atanh and acoth  in Complex PMC	fbrito	Util	"Hello,

While doing [http://www.google-melange.com/gci/task/show/google/gci2010/parrot_perl_foundations/t129193205977 this GCI task] I had some problems with ""acosh"".

Here is the output of tests that I wrote:
{{{
not ok 529 - acosh of 0-1i
# Have: -0.881374+1.570796i
# Want: 0.881374-1.570796i

not ok 530 - acosh of 0-0.5i
# Have: -0.481212+1.570796i
# Want: 0.481212-1.570796i

not ok 535 - acosh of 2-3i
# Have: -1.983387+1.000144i
# Want: 1.983387-1.000144i

not ok 537 - acosh of -2-3i
# Have: -1.983387+2.141449i
# Want: 1.983387-2.141449i
}}}

The ""want"" values were taken from WolframAlpha (ex [http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=acosh(2-3i)]).

Some other methods that relies on ""acosh"" are also returning a wrong value, like ""asech"".

{{{
not ok 587 - asech of 0.5+0i
# Have: -1.316958+0.000000i
# Want: 1.316958+0.000000i

not ok 593 - asech of 0+0.5i
# Have: -1.443635+1.570796i
# Want: 1.443635-1.570796i

not ok 594 - asech of 0+1i
# Have: -0.881374+1.570796i
# Want: 0.881374-1.570796i

not ok 595 - asech of 0+2i
# Have: -0.481212+1.570796i
# Want: 0.481212-1.570796i

not ok 596 - asech of 2+3i
# Have: -0.231335+1.420411i
# Want: 0.231335-1.420411i

not ok 598 - asech of -2+3i
# Have: -0.231335+1.721182i
# Want: 0.231335-1.721182i
}}}

I also found some errors in  ""atanh"" and ""acoth"":
{{{
not ok 538 - atanh of -2+0i
# Have: -0.549306-1.570796i
# Want: -0.549306+1.570796i

not ok 554 - acoth of -0.5+0i
# Have: -0.549306-1.570796i
# Want: -0.549306+1.570796i
}}}
