[om] DefMP elements

[Jacques Carette]

On the multiple facets of sin:  could one instead use trig1, trig2, trig3,
..., trig10 CDs, each with different syntactic FMPs (and correspondingly
different used CDs) to build 'equivalent' systems?  One for high-school
definitions, one for the exp definition, one for the series definition, etc,
etc. I understood that to be the original OM design of having multiple CDs.
Each OM application could then use the 'right' CD and not worry about math
it does not know (or want).

This does not necessarily obviate the need to alternate FMPs in some CDs,
but it would lessen it.  It might introduce a fair amount of ugly
duplication, but that would be a different problem to solve via other means.
