http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=3929 has been identified as a
problem of FPU register stack overflow on linux VM.

A single change of line 51 of x86-sysv-asm.S solved this problem:

    fstpl ffiFloatReturnValue

Though I did not write extensive tests, I used modified VM a while
without problems.

What do you think of inclusion in svn trunk ?
