RE: Question on SIGFPE

[Sreeram Kumar Ravinoothala]

Hi,
	I tried this. It says that the address is 0. And also I saw that
it doesn't fall into any of the si_codes of SIGFPE.

Since I don't know what your app is doing, it's kind of hard to know 
whats causing the problem. I still would guess on a divide by zero, 
maybe because of some timing issue.

Use sigaction(2) to trap the signal, and then look at the 
siginfo_t->si_addr to find out where it happens.

Or better yet, just run the program through gdb, it will catch the
thing...
