	Because you don't have the source code to the math library, which
includes the system call to the floating point driver, in your current
directory, so it can't find the source to the module where the error was
flagged.  If you had the library source, and the source to the kernel, in
your current directory, (and there were no name conflicts between your
program, the library, and the kernel :-), THEN it wouldn't say "no source
file".  It wants the source to the module WHERE THE ERROR OCCURRED.

	Good luck
