I never did get a definitive answer on or off the list from someone who
_knows_, so I thought I would focus the question.

Is the following option only "useful" for 386DX machines that do NOT
have a 387 math processor installed?  Is it pointless to include this
option when a 387 math processor is installed, or when the cpu is 486
and higher?
options         MATH_EMULATE    # floating point emulation

TIA
