Actually that isn't the problem. This is actually
two bugs. The first is that until very recently,
the instruction emulation code was being built for
anything but uVAX IIs. The second (which hasn't been
fixed) is that the POLYD instruction is not emulated
and so causes programs to die. Guess what -lm uses?
