Does anyone have any opinions (or better yet, experience) about 
compatibility problems with 68040 CPU's running standard Mac
applications?  I'm asking this for a friend who is considering
buying an add-on 68040-based accelerator to his SE30.  He is worried
about the (reportedly somewhat different) floating-point implmentation
of the 68040 versus the 68030 causing problems for applications.

Thanks!
