Hello, I have down-loaded (ftp'd) gcc, installed it per installation
directions and test-compiled a few programs.  This is my first
encounter with GNU software and I really appreciate it especially
the quality documentation.

Description of problem:  I have either done something stupid (most
likely) or there is a bug in the way some floating point functions are
handled.  Should not the compiler make a call to the 68881 when a
function like sin or cos is used?  Also when the following program is
compiled and run (same gcc compile line except exclusion of -S and
inclusion of the -lm library flag, see compile line below) the answer
printed out is this: i = NaN
I ran the same program using cc and it seemed to work fine,
including use of 68881 cos function.  Also, gcc seems to handle
floating point instructions like division just fine (including 68881
inline calls). Any help on this matter will be greatly appreciated.


Here's the pertinent information:

gcc version: 1.27 (I am using gcc 1.27 is because I want to install g++)
host computer: ISI V24 running UNIX 4.3bsd, M68020 w/M68881
tm.h -> tm-isi68.h 
md -> m68k.md
config.h -> config-m68k.h
aux-output.c -> output-m68k.c
gcc compile command line: gcc -m68020 -m68881 -S test.c
(I know the 68020 and 68881 are defaults anyway)

test program:

#include <math.h>
main()
{
double i;

	i = cos(.5); 
	printf("i = %f\n",i);
}

the assembly .s file produced: (notice the fmoved after the jbsr -cos)

LC0:
	.double 0r0.5
