Some uclibc based Programs Terminate with Illegal Instruction

Wrt my earlier emails under the same heading...

The problem traced to math emulation having been turned off in the newer
version of the kernel.  This resulted in floating point related
instructions in the __sigsetjmp function being caught as illegal
instructions instead of being FPU emulated by the kernel.

So I found the cause and resolved it by tweaking the kernel config and
rebuilding it.
