That is a trap for some new font stuff we don't yet support.  I'm not
sure when we will.

Well, you have an x86 FPU, but our 68LC040 emulator doesn't emulate an
FPU.  You'd get the same error message on real Macs with 68LC040's.
We *could* emulate the 68k FPU, but that's pretty low priority
compared to all the other things we need to do.  Apps which make SANE
calls to the OS to do floating point will work...they just aren't
allowed direct access to the FPU.

Yes, I think Maelstrom requires "pretend sound", although I haven't
played it in a while.  I think it also requires "refresh" to be
enabled.
