Right now, I'm not really sure which floating point unit 
I have in this sun3 on my desk.
What are the possiblities?

1) no floating point hardward

2) a ..881

3) an fp

4) both 2 and 3?

Gas doesn't seem to recognize instructions like
"fpmoved" and "fp<etc>". Yet, gcc produces them?

If I'm using gas does that restrict my options
for configuring gcc?
