 Is there a port (or some diffs) of EMU387 (for Djgpp's port of GCC) that
_INCLUDES_ the "Pentium Math Bug" ?

 I am testing some software and am interested to see how it fairs on a 
broken Pentium (which some people MAY still have). It is easier to run the
program and compare correct answers than to read the source and look for
divisions that violate the constraints (of the broken chip).

 Thanks in advance for your responses; if there is a LOT of interest I'll
post an URL in the djgpp newsgroup ...
