Ah well, that's a different matter!
What might be profitable in the case of double-precision integer
division is to call a libgcj routine to do it instead of leaving the
job to libgcc. We'd have to find some target dependent way to
determine whether we need to call the libgcj routine or generate a
double-precision integer divide insn. That doesn't sound too hard.
Andrew.
