I am trying to compile gcc-2.4.5 on my i486 running BSD386 with all 
patches through patchkit-0.2.3.

Everything compiles fine, up until the first time the make tries
to use the new ./xgcc executable.  The first file it tries to compile
is enquire.c:

	in function fprop:
	line #2328: floating overflow

needless to say it doesn't continue from there.
Anyone know why this happens, or better yet, how to get around it?

When I did this exact same thing on my 386, with the same software
configuration, it worked fine.  So its probably something hardware
specific, like the 486 chip?  Any help appreciated.

(email replys, please)
