If you have any ideas for testing, I do have working hw (the box that is
currently alive is ev45, though; I _can_ try to boot a UP1000 one, but
I make no promises regarding its fans, both in PSU and in CPU module ;-/)

Um? No, I mean having gen_fp_exc_raise() generate a call of one of the 8
helpers; gen_ieee_arith3() and friends would remain as-is. It's just that
instead of generating load to exc, andi, call of helper_fp_exc_raise_s or
call of helper_fp_exc_raise we would generate a call of one of the
helper_fp_exc_raise{,_u,_v,_s,_su,_sui,_sv,_svi} and let that sucker deal
with loading exc, updating ->fpcr_exc_status and generating traps.

They seem to - both from the arch.manual and from direct experiment... And
they do set FPCR.INV at the same time, not just trigger the trap.
