1:
  I just realized today that none of the two C compilers we have (standard V.2
and CTP, both for 32k), feature the "-f" option (compile and link for no FPU).
A quick look in the libraries showed no floating math functions.

We are considering to use the 32CG016 in an industrial design without FPU (not a
CMOS chip ).

The "undefined" trap could help but need to write the code interpreter/
emulator.

Any suggestions ?

2:
Talking of 32CG016, what are REALISTIC availability of
	- samples
	- mass production
	- "Splice" pseudo-emulator for CG16 ?
I mean for us in Europe.

Thank you.
