Doesn't anyone know anything about 387 emulation anymore?
According to the FAQ, all one should have to do is link in libemu.a with
-lemu (and it should increase the executable by 20K), but when I try
this, the size doesn't change, emulation doesn't happen. Is there a
special header I need to include to use the FP emulation functions, or
should linking in libemu.a make the default ones work.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
(Would like to start PARALLEL PROCESSING Mandelbrot Fractals accros an
IPX/SPX network SOON, but can't because slave computers are all 386's
without math co's, and as anyone who has experience with fractals knows,
you need doubles to make it work!)
