Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!

That was really getting to me.. I checked through the makefile so many
times... .. as soon as I read this I took a look, 20 seconds later the
missing  `-lm` was inserted and my program works... jeeez

The thing is it's suprising how rarely I have to use math.c for the sort
of programming you do in the day to day - finance work *yawn* is pretty
all done in integers (pence), and cos() and sin() don't really get a
look in unless you're looking to plot a curve.. *sigh*

Big thanks to Steve from stopping me from going insane.
