The new code seems to work fine on IRIX, just like the old code did.

At least in 68030 mode.  Whenever I try to use 68030+FPU or 68040, I get
all kinds of nasty FP bugs, usually including wild references and core
dumps.  See bug 422776.  Is this a known problem with the UAE FPU core
on big endian or non-x68 systems?  I'm using MacOS 7.5.5.

(Although the new code does change the symptoms of the problem a bit:
now direct addressing core dumps (with an appropriate message from the
segv handler) and real mode hangs Speedometer.)
