[comp.sys.amiga] mathffp.library

  The mathffp.library (not ffp.library) is not in libs: because it is part
of Kickstart, along with exec, graphics, layers, intuition, etc.

The odd thing about it is that, unlike the other ROM libraries, the
mathffp.library disapears from the Exec library list after a "flush
libs" command, but then comes back when a program references it.  Where
does it go when it's not on the list?

Just curious.

Lattice C 4.xx and opening the mathffp lib.  I have been trying to use
the SPMul, SPDiv, SPAdd, and SPSub in a Mandelbrot generator.
 The problem is that SPDiv alwawys gives divide by zero error, the others
give a zero result!  I have checked the args before the call and they 
appear to be OK.  SPFlt works well, and my 881 works with Turbo Silver 3.0
  What's the problem?  Should I be looking for something?  HELP!!
