Hi Daniel,

You have a bug in your  supply_fpregset() and fill_fpregset()
routines.  You are being passed an elf_fpregset_t * and incrementing
the counter by 264 od bytes each time through the loops.  You
need to offload the arguement something like the following before
using it with regi.

  elf_fpreg_t  *fpregp = &(*fpregsetp)[0];


This wont show up very well until you try and load a core dump
files which will actually cause gdb to die as it spins off into invalid
memory.    I would be surprised if your floating point regs in
gdb look any good the way the code is at the moment.
I had to look at the assembler to work this out a few days ago.

Cheers
