What "other cases like these" show SIGFPE? What kinds of errors should one be looking for? I have to say that I'm more inclined to blame GCC, especially on non-i386, and especially its optimizer.

Do you believe that this is the cause of the SIGFPE? -Steve -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
