Linking Problem (FPA instructions)

If I add next lines of code to lpc2106_hello_rs232_newlib example
project (beginning of main):

    int ta = 123;
    int tb = 234;
    int tc = ta / tb;
    tc = tc;

I can build the code ok, but if I change the makefile in a way that
instead of using MCU target "arm7tdmi" I use "arm926ej-s" I receive a
lot of errors:

Any idea how can I build the code shown above into "arm926ej-s" MCU? MCU
target "arm9" works also but "arm9e" causes same FPA errors.

The environment I'm using is "WinARM Version 20060606"

I am thinking about this, but until I come up with something, an lpc2106
is not an ARM9. What exactly are you targeting out of curiosity?

Yes, I faced this problem in my own kernel development project, targeted
(at the moment) for arm926ej-s because QEMU supports that :-)

The reason for using lpc2106_hello_rs232_newlib was to give other WinARM
users a possibility to try that piece of code with "arm926ej-s" target,
because this problem exists also with that makefile.
