Well, not _all_ instructions that can be missing. There are lots
of insn't that could be added, feel free to do it :-)
Anyway; regarding modf(), the problem is that modf uses emodd, and
that emulation code was written a while ago by bjc@openbsd but I was
lazy, so it wasn't checked in. Now I've done it, so you should be
able to test it with a new kernel from
ftp://bakfull.campus.luth.se/netbsd/netbsd
or check it out from the source tree.
