This is a known problem.  Specifically, it seems that the 68LC040 in the
PB520 has problems with the floating point emulator.

Erik Bertelsen figured out that you can use the mount_ffs program directly
to mount your partitions.  Not that it helps much, though.

I'd really like to squish this bug, but having to do it without having
an 'LC040 machine here has proven to be rather challenging.  My initial
attempts to resolve this have failed, though I'm not at all sure why.
