- That may be, but since Linux is a 32-bit OS under new machines, the FPEm is
- also 32-bit, and as such expects the ARM6 msr/mrs extensions to be there.
- This prevents the FPEm from running correctly on the ARM3 machines.

- (In fact, because of this, and a difference in the stack structure between
- the two machines for the same reason, it is not possible to build one
- fpemulator that runs on both machines).
