Thanks. In my digging today I found the archtable - and it
is indeed compiled in. I think the version I have doesn't
have the right/full archtable in it.
Here's another quetion. The system I'm compiling on is
missing.
/usr/include/floatingpoint.h
/usr/include/math.h
/usr/include/sys/ieeefp.h
Where can I get these? OS vendor package or GNU package?
thanks!
