I thought I had the whole soft-float thing on 8xx worked out long ago, until I upgraded our root filesystem to the one from MontaVista's Journeyman kit, and found that my glibc-2.1.3.so (which my binaries work when linked against) doesn't work in place of the Journeyman glibc-2.1.2.so. It's the usual symptom: A simple floating-point printf gives the wrong answer.
So, my question: what configure options were used to build the gcc-2.95.2 & glibc-2.1.2 in Journeyman? In particular: - Did the gcc configure include "-with-cpu=860" (or one of the other cpus's to make -msoft-float the default). - Has the gcc specs file been hacked to pass -D_SOFT_FLOAT in the absence of -mhard-float (note that -mcpu=860 won't do this by default in gcc-2.95.2) - Was CFLAGS set to include -msoft-float before building glibc? - Any other suggestions :-( Thanks!
