Sorry, that doesn't apply.  That technology allows a 68881 or 68882 to add
FP math functions to the 68030's repertoire.  It's not designed to allow a
new CPU to completely take over from the 68030.

I believe the 68030 already has an FPU (at least my 270c does). I thought
the Dock FPU was for the 280 series with 68LC040's (which lack an FPU).
