Indeed, that bug is less important than I originally thought.

Updated.

I absolutely want to include FPU support in mintv4e.prg, since support 
for EmuTOS for ColdFire will be a major new feature of FreeMiNT 1.18. 
This should be only a few assembler instructions at 2 or 3 places, 
anyway. And testing.

Regarding to the FireTOS internal PureC patcher, this is also a major 
feature. Jo Even provided a patch, it must be tested.

Also, I have to investigate the new stairs bug on the serial port, as I 
absolutely want to keep the fix for the stairs on console.

Last but not least, last time I tried XaAES on the 1.18 branch, the 
Application menu was severely broken. Helmut didn't merge his trunk 
patch to 1.18, this must be done (if not yet done).

Regarding to the EmuTOS release, everything is supposed to be finished 
now. I plan to release EmuTOS 0.9.0 this week-end.

After that, I will do as much possible for FreeMiNT.
Of course, the 1.18 release must be tested enough to avoid big regressions.
