Tiny nit, if you happen to revise this set at some point...

While you probably don't need/want to have an exhaustive list of
everything that gets saved in there, we should probably still mention
that it's a lot more than just vector instructions.

I'd say:

	The FPU state used depends on the capabilities of the
	hardware.  This state increasingly contains things
	not related to the FPU itself, like registers used for
	vector instructions.
