	I've been wondering if Eric Ding has been having the same problem I've
been having.  Just to help me figure out exactly what I should do, would anyone
out there who's running NetBSD on a machine with no FPU (ie, 486sx) please try
the following, and let me know what happens:

add 6.001
scheme001

(edwin)

And then
(/ 5 2)
and press ctrl-x ctrl-c to evaluate.

If you get 2.5, then upgrading to 1.1 should fix my problem.

If you get some scary error, then I'm worried.



(If you have no FPU and your're running 1.0A like I am, please try this!  I'd
really like to find out whether anyone is having the same problem as I am.)




						Thanks,
