Hello,

Ignatios has indicated that a soft-float library would need to be written
for gcc in order to recompile the entire source tree with the -msoft-float
option.

Can anyone elabourate about details on where to get this? Has it been done
for any other m68k (or m68k-like, such as Coldfire) gcc toolchain?

Also, has anyone looked at Roman Zippel's work on getting m68k FPU
emulation working properly? The last update is here:
http://zeus.fh-brandenburg.de/~zippel/linux/bin/fpe.990626.diff.gz

I suppose at some point someone has to make a technical decision about
whether FPU emulation on LC040s and LC060s will ever work; if not, then
building a separate soft float compiled tree would be nice.

Thanks,
John Klos
