 So the solution to my problem was to set the __INITIAL_NPXCW__ to
 0x37F.  What I can think of is that the freebsd binary sets
 the Control Word to this before running but the linux binary 
 does not (because it is assumed to already be set by the kernel
 at boot time).  So I would think the linux kernel module would need
 to set it also.
