I've been told that there's a way to factor the following matrix so that,
when it's multiplied by a column vector, the total number of multiplications
are reduced (2:1?) at the expense of some additions.  However, I can't see
how.  Any insights would be appreciated.

 c3 -c5  c1 -c7
 c5  c3 -c7 -c1
-c7  c1  c3  c5
 c1  c7 -c5  c3

where cn=cos(n*pi/16).
