your patch is definitively needed

However, I'd rather do it the way gdb does it:
- 'info regs' shows only 'general purpose' and segment registers
- 'info all-regs' shows all the registers (including floating point ones)

that'd mean adding an extra parameter to all be_???_print_context to 
drive this.

winedbg: add diplay for floating point status

[Jeff Latimer]

Thanks for the advice and encouragment.  I will be submitting patches 
again soon.  Should the all-regs be invoked at the exception or just the 
regs?  I suppose the FPU errors are rather rare.
