The relevant .config line:

# CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION is not set

The intention here is to remove the old, original, half-assed emulate
a few instructions function.  Either you get floating point emulation
or you don't.  I wrote the original version long ago before there was
floating point emulation, just to make a little forward progress.  It's
time to remove it and I guess the Makefiles, configuration, and real
code files didn't get updated together.

Use whatever works (you won the prize :-), and it will be fixed up
shortly.

Thanks.
