Yes, that’s precisely what’s not working on the most widespread emulator, at the very least. (I have working code for that, in three(!) variants, but it just ignores those requests to change precision.) I think FPU is the one thing current m68k emulators do the worst... the responses I got from the mailing list back then said so, anyway.
