Well, I would be happy to assist you in keeping NO_FP_API alive and supply you 
with adequate diffs and resources. However, I would first need to know what 
exactly is not working for you and where and on which platform exactly it 
breaks for you because actually it is *working* for us.

Please note that the Amiga platform is substantially different to the usual 
Unix and Windows environments OpenSSL is build for. One important reason why we 
need the NO_FP_API support is, that AmigaOS comes with a variety of different 
c-library implementations which all have their own (thus incompatible) FP 
implementations. Thus, we need to have a possibility to easily compile OpenSSL 
without any FP depending function prototype so that our publicly released 
shared library can be used by applications being compile by different compilers 
and thus c-libraries implementation of FP.

So please tell me *exactly* what you require to get the NO_FP_API support into 
a state that it is still acceptable for you. And please tell how and on which 
platform I can reproduce the problems you are seeing.

best regards,
jens
