The DC.W 0x51C8 is actually a "Decrement and Branch" instruction;  
dunno why it isn't recognised by your disassembler - I assume the  
5200 has this instruction.  After that it encounters an instruction  
of which the opcode starts with an "F".  These opcodes are reserved  
for floating point operations, which the 5200 presumably doesn't  
have; hence the complaint about "Unimplemented F-Line Instruction".

So somehow the branch instruction is ignored and its displacement  
interpreted as an instruction opcode.

This is where my expertise (based on the 68040) ends.  Apparently  
there's a mismatch between the capabilities assumed for generating  
assembly in the config/m68k/m68k.md file and the real capabilities  
of the 5200.

Hope someone else can help you further,
Toon.
