 *  DESCRIPTION
 *
 *    The density function of the F distribution.
 *    To evaluate it, write it as a Binomial probability with p = x*m/(n+x*m).
 *    For m >= 2, we use the simplest conversion.
 *    For m < 2, (m-2)/2 < 0 so the conversion will not work, and we must use
 *               a second conversion.
 *    Note the division by p; this seems unavoidable
 *    for m < 2, since the F density has a singularity as x (or p) -> 0.
