some of them. To be precise: 68020 and 68030 ones. _NOT_ 68LC040
or 68LC060, currently. This is clearly stated in the INSTALL document
near the top, so you can't sue me :-).

The emulation isn't complete, but enough for the in-tree system programs.

Btw: zcat, or the gzip -d beneath it, shouldnt use floating point... maybe
with the exception of statistics which are output with the -v option only.
