There are two invocations of do_mathemu() in the traps.c. The one in the
function program_check_exception() doesn't call the PPC_WARN_EMULATED.
This is also the one I try to fix. Of course my patch will definitely corrupt
the one in function SoftwareEmulation(). I will respin a new patch to
fix this. Sorry for my mistake.

Thanks,
Kevin
