I developed an application that does a great deal of floating point - it
uses software floating point or the math chip if present.

The biggest problem that I had - my software had many "large" floating
point expressions - some of which went on for pages.  I had to simplify
some of them because they overflowed the math coprocessor's operand stack.

If you can figure the line where the program is crashing, try to simplify the 
expression and see if that works.
