On my IIci w/ 68882 FPU, I use
options M68030
makeoptions CC="cc -m68030"
And it worked just fine with source up to the 1.2 release. I haven't
tried compiling current yet. If you don't have an '020 or an '040, you
shouldn't need:
options M68040
options M68020 # Must have 68851 PMMU
Likewise, if you have an FPU, you shouldn't need:
options FPSP
options FPU_EMULATE
So, it may just be that -current doesn't happen to currently produce a
bootable kernel. (This does happen from time to time). However, you
might want to build a GENERIC kernel and see if it runs first before
accepting my conclusion.
Later.
