   The problem in interactive is not weitek dependend, it is a problem with
   the coprocessor emulator, if there is no coprocessor present !
   I never tried toete.c having a weitek coprocessor, due to dobag being
   an 486 without an weitek.

   I would be interested in any note about it.

Tote is a perfect security breach on my '386 with a weitek...

It's going to be very interesting to see how fast ISC responds to this
now...
