My vote goes to adding PowerPC specific tests. I already made some and = sent them to the list a couple of days ago. A general purpose floating = point test suite would probably not be able to test things like PowerPC = floating point flags.=20 I'm not certain how we would add floating point tests to QEMU. I'm = guessing it would involve some kind of bootable image file that would = load and run the tests. Hopefully there is an easier way to implement = testing.
