Updated the webrev for CR6708398: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rriggs/6708398.2  - Added a paragraph to the class javadoc for Math and StrictMath to introduce the exact arithmetic methods and their uses.  - Editorial correction to first sentence of each method to consistent use "Returns".  - Added Tests for the StrictMath methods  (they are the same tests as for Math)

In case you didn't see it, the question as to what to include was asked here http://blog.joda.org/2012/02/jdk-helper-math-methods.html

The answers were inconclusive, however I would argue that negate has enough supporters to justify inclusion.
