I've run into a problem with Microport System V/AT 2.3 on an AT clone
(no 80287).  Floating point faults cause the system to crash.  For some
reason it only seems to happen after the second fault.  Is this a bug in
Microport's kernel and FP software? I've been trying to run the paranoia
FP test program, it seems to be doing an excellent job of uncovering FP
problems!
