Hi, Bear,
Thanks for your contributionary sentiment. Unfortunately, we cannot accept
code based on _Numerical Recipes_, given their license.

While this stuff is cool, I personally find myself having to hold back when I
think about adding this kind of material, given the project's charter of being
"a library of lightweight, self-contained mathematics and statistics
components addressing the most common practical problems not immediately
available in the Java programming language".
I think FFT's are so widely used (where they're used at all) that they're a
reasonable if not completely obvious candidate for inclusion in Commons-Math.
I'm not convinced that PDE solution algorithms are, though.
If the library were a full-fledged mathematical/scientific library, I would
have no hesitation at all about this material, I assure you. Sorry to be a wet
blanket!
