I found http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1018638/using-software-floating-point-on-x86-linux
which looks like it contains some interesting links (including
alternative soft-float implementations), but I'm afraid it's all a bit
over my head.
I tried the "libgcc" steps recommended (again using slackware on the
BB), but it failed with lots of "can't emulate 'TF'" errors.
