In Interactive Systems 386/ix 2.0.2 there is a symbol used in many of the
routines in the C libraries called "__fltused".  It is not in 386/ix 1.0.6.
When using the 'nm' command I see it being an external symbol of value 0 
everywhere, but I never see where it is really defined.  Can anybody tell me
its type and what it's used for?
