broke		works		meaning
0xc7a		0x0f7f

  XX		  XX		Precision control (00=24 bits, 11=64 bits)
           X               X	Zero Divide exception (0=exception, 1=handle it)
             X               X	Invalid Operation exception (0=exception, 1=handle it)

Clearly, the precision is wrong, but I think the masks are right, so
the "correct" control word, in my opinion, is 0x037a.  The current
go32 sources do not change the precision after the FNINIT.  FNINIT
is supposed to set the control word to 0x037f.

Note: the top two bits are rounding; 00=round to nearest or even,
11=chop towards zero.  I think rounding is best.
