   I'm sorry, but is sysdev/ really fitting place for this file?
Shouldn't it be under kernel/ or math-emu/ instead?

    Also, the name doesn't look fittingto me, since we're not  
handling
*SIGFPE* here (which is for userland), we're handling SPE  
exceptions.

arch/powerpc/math-emu/spe/<whatever>.c seems like a good
place?
    Yeah, certainly more like it. :-)

Agreed, this shouldn't have been in sysdev, didn't notice that :)

We should probably rename this as well, since its not just handling  
the sigfpe part, but the actual fixup/emulation.
