In message [ref] you wrote:
This could also be a floating point issue.  Most code compiled against
libc will try to "reset" the floating point state upon startup.  This
will cause a fault if you do not have a kernel floating point emulator
No, this has nothing to do with it.

First, Marco wrote that he is working on a 8270 processor which has a
FPU, so FP issues should not play a role here.

Second, he mentioned that he was using the ELDK which takes  care  of
using soft-float on processors without a MMU.


Thanks.
