     Syntax:  /FPc
 
     This option generates floating-point calls to the emulator library
     and places the name of an emulator library (mLIBCE.LIB) in the
     object file.
 
     At link time, you can specify an 80x87 library (mLIBC7.LIB) or
     alternate math library (mLIBCA.LIB) instead. The /FPc option gives
     you flexibility in your choice of libraries for linking.
 
     This option is recommended if you compile modules that
 
        ■ Perform floating-point operations (when you plan to include
          these modules in a library)
 
        ■ Link with libraries other than the libraries provided with
          this compiler
 
     NOTES:
 
        ■ Certain optimizations are not performed when /FPc is used.
          This can reduce the efficiency of your code.
 
        ■ Neither the Fast Compile option (/f) nor the p-code option
          (/Oq) supports the /FPc option.
