Subject: FPU detection code

Here's the promised FPU detection code. I post it both in original asm
and
DJGPP inline asm forms. Code (AFAIK) originally comes from Intel and it
worked on all computers I have tested it against. Note that it assumes
it's being run on at least 386. The code uses FPU opcodes but it DOES
NOT
require any FPU emulation.

DO NOT TRY TO COMPILE THE DJGPP CODE WITH ANY OF THE -O OPTIONS - AS
WILL
COMPLAIN ABOUT UNRECOGNIZED 386 OPCODES.

/* This is an official Intel FPU detection code converted to DJGPP

   On 486 and higher the code returns 1.

She nervously undressed in the dancing beams of the Fidra lighthouse
Giving it all away before it's too late. She'll let her lover's tongue
move in a warm wet circle, giving it all away and showing no shame.
She'll take her mother's kiss on her first broken heart, a warm wet
circle,
she'll realise that she plays her part in a warm wet circle...
