This reminds of the thread about FPU support from a while back.
Someone (myself and a few others) were suggesting that there should
be two binaries in every archive:
1) 68000 plain-jane binary.
2) 68020-40 with 68881 FPU enabled by default.
Many Falcon users complained that a Falcon is not factory-equiped
with an FPU and that bying one wasn't among their priorities.
