I have a project that removes all the floating point code from J2ME code
and replaces it with soft floating point.  I don't remember having any
particular problem with J2ME code.  I take the code before verification,
modify it, then verify it.

Since most J2ME implementations (eg J9) now come with floating point
support, I haven't spent much time on the project recently so maybe I
mis-remember.
