Now I am confused!

How could this cause
"floating point used in kernel (task=c0398410, pc=3184)"

Both uClibc and gclibc are user land libraries. They should not be able to
cause an kernel floating point operation. No user land code should be able
to do this!

Or is it your kernel linked with uClibc/gclibc? I do not think that is the
right thing to do...
