   My knowledge of i386/7-based systems other than Linux is limited, so I
   definitely appreciate you looking this stuff over.  I'd appreciate
   any help you and D.J. could provide.  I'll ask questions here.

Please keep in mind that the current i387-tdep.c file is also used on
the Hurd.  There is some machine dependent code in i386gnu-nat.c that
you might want to look at.  Especially print_387_status() which has a
comment that says that it should be moved to i387-tdep.c.

Since floating point support is working on the Hurd right now I'd like
to keep it that way :-).  Maybe it is a good idea to include me in the
discussion and perhaps Jim could send me the FP changes so that I can
make the necessary changes to the Hurd-specific code.

Mark
