Greetings,

I would like to ask whether anyone knows of a way to impose fixed-point 
arithmetic instead of floating point when compiling with gcc under cygwin. 


My target is to profile an executable with and without floating point 
arithmetic. I noted that there is a soft-float option that can be passed 
targeting a 386 cpu, but during linking the linker cannot find the library 
that provides the floating point arithmetic functions needed. 

I was wondering if anyone has done this in the past ...  All tips will be 
gratefully appreciated.

Cheers
