+powerpc instruction 'mffsl' not emulated on POWER8
+Description of problem:
+Since 2019, the function feenableexcept() in GNU libc makes use of the "mffsl" instruction.
+See https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=blob;f=sysdeps/powerpc/fpu/feenablxcpt.c;h=b111ceaa4e2e1864fcbe043ccda34e03e9f14062;hb=HEAD#l28
+and https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=blob;f=sysdeps/powerpc/fpu/fenv_libc.h;h=a2a12d914b47e99746003482b349a0675cc5ad34;hb=HEAD#l57
+
+In the emulated Debian system, executables that make use of this instruction crash with SIGILL.
+Likewise, under gdb (in the emulated system), there is a SIGILL at the 'mffsl' instruction.
+
+From the comments in the above glibc source, added by Paul A. Clarke <pc@us.ibm.com>:
+  "Nicely, it turns out that the 'mffsl' instruction will decode to
+   'mffs' on architectures older than "power9" because the additional
+   bits set for 'mffsl' are "don't care" for 'mffs'.  'mffs' is a superset
+   of 'mffsl'."
+
+This is indeed what I observe by compiling and running the attached program foo.c on a hardware machine with a POWER8 CPU: That program does not crash with a SIGILL.
+Steps to reproduce:
+1. Either run the attached 'test-fenv-except-tracking-5.ppc' (32-bit) program under qemu-system-ppc.
+2. Or run the the attached 'test-fenv-except-tracking-5.ppc64' (64-bit) program under qemu-system-ppc64 with -cpu POWER8.
+3. Or compile and run the attached foo.c and run it under QEMU.
