I've been trying a few things using floating point emulation on the ix86
hardware using floatlib.c. As far as I've been able to tell, this does
not appear to be a supported facility on this hardware (or is this only
true for cross-compilation?), so I manually compiled and linked this
file against my code which in turn had been compiled with -msoft-float.
I encountered a few oddities in the behaviour of my resultant
executable, so I'm wondering whether this is the correct list to ask
questions on, or whether I should try some of the email addresses in the
floatlib.c header?

I don't know the answer but I am curious about the floatlib.c.
What is its relaionship with the soft-fp library in glibc?
thanks,
Wei
