Yes, they are annoying to me as h^Hwell.  I'm the one who's supposed
to fix the bug, but it looks like it needs a little more time.

At one time I thought I figured out why it had to happen, but the more
I investigate, the more puzzled I get.  As a result, I can't offer you
any in-depth explanation (if I could, I'd be hacking away a fix now)
but it is absolutely clear that it is related to the floating point
emulator as it does happen only on the 68LC040 which lacks the FPU.
