Kernel tweaks on TT030
It looks like we don't need "options FPU_EMULATE" in the ATARITT kernel
configuration file.

I tried commenting out that option and I now have a smaller kernel. =) It
boots and seems to work. dmesg still says:
Atari TT (m68030 CPU/MMU mc68882 FPU)
Since no TT030 shipped without an FPU, we should probably make this change
permanently in /usr/src/sys/arch/atari/conf/ATARITT.
Questions:
- What's something I can try quickly that would exercise the FPU, just to
test?
- Would it also make sense to move kernel compilation from using -m68020 to
-m68030?
- How about moving from -O2 to -O3?
- Anything else we might be able to tweak for a "free" performance gain?
