[Crawl] dos binary for 486sx wo/fpu ?

[Guest]

Does anyone by any chance have a dos binary of the newest crawl lying
around? Preferably Darshan-patched... To be more
precise, a dos binary that works without a fpu? (djgpp with
"-march=i386 -msoft-float -mno-fp-ret-in-387" options or similar ?)

The current dos binary crashes on 386DX/SX without fpu and 486SX without
fpu. 486DX/PentiumAnything has FPU built-in so those of you with such
systems have no problems.

Request from a friend of mine

The UNIX philosophy basically involves giving you enough rope to
hang yourself. And then a couple of feet more, just to be sure.

I've got djgpp set up and all achin' to go, but what library do I need
to link in to keep the linker happy when I use the soft-float option?

The djgpp FAQ says linking with libemu.a is adequate to support
processors without FPUs - if your friend would like to try such a
binary, send me a mail or followup here.
