Re: Non-FPU Lua 5.1

[askok@...]

The "real" non-FPU patch is some 700 lines and has a lot more than what you are up to.

It is sad, that my poor Linux NSLU2 box back home is not up; I've been having problems with it lately 
(dyndns kind) and will only be able to get it up by... Monday?   Wish me luck. :)
