the standard math library (libm) may follow IEEE-754 recommendation to
include an implementation of sinPi(), i.e. sinPi(x):=sin(pi*x).
And this triggers a name clash, found by FreeBSD developer
Steve Kargl, who worked on putting sinpi into libm used on FreeBSD
(it has to be named "sinpi", not "sinPi", cf. e.g.
https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/experimental/fpext4)

https://bugs.python.org/issue36106

this is a backport of #12027 to
2.7 branch.
