    Your problem is the asm on line 70.  It uses the m68881
  coprocessor, and you cannot use both the fpa and the 68881 together
  under gcc.  (This decision was made when I was doing the port.  It
  is *somewhat* arbitrary, and fully explained in the m68k.md file.
  The asm you use is the first good reason I've seen not to do it my
  way).  If someone wants to make the necessary changes to m68k.md to
  allow use of the fpa and the 68881 together, that would be
  wonderful.  However, I'm probably not going to be that person.  See
  m68k.md for more details.
