Hi
The probing for npx0 causes my machine to completely lock up. The
cause seems to be the fnop() that has been added in npxprobe1() (in
i386/isa/npx.c) since 2.0-RELEASE. (I am running 950210-SNAP now). It
works just fine if you comment out the fnop(). My machine is an old
386 (Chips&Technologies chipset, AMI BIOS, and no math co-processor).

(Sorry for not sending this to whoever is hacking on npx.c but I don't
know how to find out who is hacking on what, if anyone want to fill me
in on how to figure that out, please do.)

/Sebastian
