I guess it has been changed in the recent update so the compiler now has to actually emit FP library function calls. It would be best if that code could be reworked to use integer math.It really looks like all the math should be quite doable with just regular integer code. You'd need to use 64-bit integer division (some of the values involved are large), but it doesn't look fundamentally hard. Somebody that knows the code needs to do this, though.I know what happened. 2.6.1-rc2-mm1 added the `-msoft-float' compiler option. So what used to be inline 387 instructions became fp library calls. So it's not an _urgent_ problem, and I can probably just drop the -msoft-float patch from my tree. But it should be addressed.
In 2.6.1-mm1 occurs the same errors.
