Subject: 386 without FPU instability

I am running the same version of -current (about May 9) on two
machines: one 486/50 and one 386/40 without copro.

The 486/50 is extremly stable while the 386/40 crashes at least
once a day.

Applications on both are roughly the same: news, mail, name server,
ftp server.

Could this be some weird thing in the fpu-emulator? The only other
difference is the hard disk controller (scsi vs. ide), but NetBSD
did never have any problems with *this* ide controller.
