HI,

Well, someone needs to break the fork up into pieces and submit those.
The FPU change is a good candidate - but it needs to be a sepaate PR
for that.

So, how about we start with the fpu change? Get it into a separate
enhancement PR, then email -arch and -current. I'll help you get it
reviewed and put into -head.
