From: dingbat@diku.dk (Niels Skov Olsen) Subject: SML/NJ can do floating point under 0.99.3! Date: 14 Jan 1993 12:39:46 GMT
It seems that the intel code generator for smlnj (Standard ML of New Jersey)
uses undocumented FPU opcodes in their otherwise state-of-the-art compiler
for the functional language Standard ML.

I can happily report that 0.99.3 fixes the problems so that floating
point arithmetic is working beautifully.
