>Description:
	I don't think the m68k port is able to read fpu registers from
	corefiles. When I implemented this for the ns32k architecture,
	I noticed that the "which" parameter given to fetch_core_registers
	isn't used in the way expected in gdb/gdb/arch/m68k/m68k-nat.c.
	Please look at gdb/gdb/arch/ns32k/ns32k-nat.c
