The libm that has the mose 'fpu support is the msun lib, located
in /usr/src/lib/msun.

Build this lib with make -DHAVE_FPU
and install it with make install.

You should do this as root.

I normally use make -n -DHAVE_FPU, etc. to see what the command
does before I do it.

I have been looking at this lib with an eye to improvements.

If you have questions or problems, ask.
