I'm new to NetBSD and I want my AS200 4/100 to work as a numeric server
in my home (don't laugh, fastest machine in my home was 487SX-25).
I compiled g77-0.5.23 with gcc-2.8.1 under the NetBSD 1.3.2, it seems work
properly unless I tried to compile with -p option.
With -p option program raises Segmentation violation fault before the
MAIN__() called. I traced with gdb, but I could not understand the behavior,
it seems that set_signal function call may corrupt the return stack?

Anyone there already resolve the problem?

BTW, I think I can contribute a performance patch for some of the
libm functions that I already contributed to GNU project(glibc).
That acceralates functions such as sin, cos, pow fucntions about 30% in my box.
Is there someone who interested in this patch?

Thank you in advance,
