You probably need it for compiling this intermediate patch, but probably drop
inline and let the compiler choose.  This is quite a bit of code after all...

You need to set float_exception_flags to zero after reading, so that you don't
re-copy the flags during the next fp insn.

What an unfortunate spec.  This is an incredibly broken way to implement fp
exception flags.

Exception flags are the sort of thing that's supposed to be collected across a
whole subroutine, without having to worry about the fp exception flags being
clobbered by the surrounding pointer arithmetic.

In order to implement proper IEEE support with this chip, one would have to
implement the fp exception word in software, clearing the PSW bits before each
group of fp instructions and storing the PSW bits after each such group.

Oh well.  You're doing what the manual says...
