square root, reciprocal, exponent, logarithm, sine/cosine, arcsine/arcosine,
while having any mix of these in the pipeline simultaneously.

So I think you may thrust me on this....

While I really believe you designed all that stuff (I designed by self some functional blocks, including adder and multiplier, during an university VLSI study), it is still a bit perkily to think that no one else can do it better (or at least in a different way) then you.
I also trust an intel engineers about a difficulty in designing an efficient execution units.
