Look at cpukit/score/src/threadhandler.c and make sure
the thread wrapper code is actually initializing the FP
context correctly the first time to enable it.
Jiri can comment directly but I recall that the SPARC port
assumes RTEMS itself is always soft-float but the application
can be compiled with hardware FP enabled and things will
just work.
