Release calc version 2.12.6.4

Fixed a man page warning about ./myfile where the leading dot
was mistook for an nroff macro.  Thanks goes to David Haller
<dnh at opensuse dot org> for providing the patch.

Improved gen_v1(h,n) in lucas.cal for cases where h is not a
multiple of 3. Optimized the search for v(1) when h is a
multiple of 3.

Fixed a Makefile problem, reported by Doug Hays <doughays6 at gmail
dot com>, where if a macOS user set BINDIR, LIBDIR, CALC_SHAREDIR
or INCDIR in the top section, their values will be overwritten by
the Darwin specific section.

* Moreover when evaluating odd candidates for v(1), one may cache Jacobi symbol
* evaluations to reduce the number of Jacobi symbol evaluations to a minimum.
* For example, if one tests 5 and finds that the 2nd case fails:
*
* jacobi(5+2, h*2^n-1) != -1
*
* Then if one is later testing 9, the Jacobi symbol value for the first 1st case:
*
* jacobi(7-2, h*2^n-1)
*
* is already known.
*
* The hit rate in the cache improves (thus fewer Jacobi symbols need evaluating)
* if we sort the above "smallest odd v(1) values" in numerical order.
* Without Jacobi symbol value caching, it requires on average
* 4.851377 Jacobi symbol evaluations. With Jacobi symbol value caching
* cacheing, an averare of 4.348820 Jacobi symbol evaluations is needed.
*
* Given this information, when odd h is a multiple of 3 we try, in order,
* these sorted values of X:

* And stop on the first value of X where:
*
* jacobi(X-2, h*2^n-1) == 1
* jacobi(X+2, h*2^n-1) == -1

* If no value in that list works, we start simple search starting with X = 167

*
* The x_tbl[] matrix contains those common values of X to try in order.
* If all x_tbl_len fail to satisfy Ref4 condition 1, then we begin a
* linear search at next_x until we find a proper X value.
