[syslinux] "Floating point exception" when running linux/syslinux using syslinux 3.72

[Steven Shiau]

Hi,
I got "Floating point exception" when running linux/syslinux using
syslinux 3.72.
How to reproduce:
1. On debian Etch, kernel 2.6.24-etchnhalf.1-686
2. wget
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/syslinux-3.72.tar.bz2
3. tar xvjf syslinux-3.72.tar.bz2
4. syslinux-3.72/linux/syslinux --help
5. An error message "Floating point exception" was shown.

Same problem for
http://free.nchc.org.tw/syslinux/Testing/syslinux-3.73-pre6.tar.bz2.

It's OK when using syslinux 3.71.
Does anyone has same problem ?

Thanks in advance.

Steven.
