Man, I hate floats... I try to avoid them as much as I can, because I am dreading the butterfly effect. And, this time around I was lazy, and one of the butterflies kicked me.
Funny thing about the m68k: My project ACTUALLY has an m68k virtual machine inside. ;) Okay, so: This release (0.25) will be fixed in the debian/rules file. Next release (0.26) will be fixed in the software. Thank you for pointing it out! One last thing... Why did your patch say "ifneq... i386"?
