Its all in the tool chain :)

Look on the Cirrus web site to see if they describe how
to get the math-crunch engine supported by the toolchain.

I haven't built a floating-point tool, so can't comment
on how difficult it will be.

I suspect that you'll run into trouble as soon as you
link with a standard library though, as that will also
need to be built with a compatible tool-chain.

So figure out how to build a math-crunch supported
tool-chain, rebuild glibc, and I think you'll be all set.

Good luck :)

Dave
