I had thought they did, but I'm guessing it is done with a 
software library.  It does have a barrel shifter and mulitplier, 
though.

That certainly is a big negative factor in the idea of porting 
even a major chunk of EMC2 to the ARM7.  But, my little project
for a parallel port replacement, if I can ever make it work, 
would not need any floating point, it is just moving bytes of 
I/O back and forth.
