Description Miro Kropacek 2006-09-07 09:07:27 UTC 
Concretly, this bug applies to 2.13.2.1-2 version for FreeMiNT distribution 
(http://sparemint.atariforge.net/sparemint/html/packages/binutils.html).

Try this:

fmove.l #65536*32768,register

after you assemble it for m68k (I used -m68020-60 switch) the result is crap 
(bad number in fp0). I have to write this instead:

fmove.l #32768,d0
swap d0
fmove.l d0,fp0

or (i'm not sure, though)

fmove.l #0x80000000,fp0

(it seems like integer overflow with numbers > 2^31)

I do apologize if this bug was already fixed but I'm new to all this bug 
reporting...
