Thats "Line F emulator trap". UAE is not emulating some FPU opcode thats 
needed.

Now, if UAE pretends to be a 68020 or 68030, you should just use a kernel
with FPU_EMULATE. If it insists to emulate a 68040 and up, you're out of
luck.

Of course, there is the faint chance that UAE does NOT correctly decode 
unimplemented instructions, and creates the Line F trap even for MMU
instructions. In this case, you're out of luck, too.
