hw multiplier for Cyclone

With NIOS-1 i could select three implementations for multiplications (sw, mul_step, mul). In Nios-2 this feature is complety missing. Is there any way to tell the SOPC-Builder for NIOS-2 to integrate...

I would be happy with a hw-multiply taking 3-4 cycles. For division 35 cycles are OK.

I don't see the point in Jame's post why a multi-cycle hw-multiplyer would cut frequency?

We will also take a look on Steve's FP-stuff.

Thanks
