That is probably the correct thing to do. Does it seem strange to anyone
that an integer divison problem causes a floating point exception?
Oh, I just tested HP-UX 9.03. It seems to do the same thing as Linux.
At least as far as I can tell. I don't know how to use the debugger on
HP-UX, so all I can say is that the program never finishes, and can not
be interupted by a cntrl-C. It can be suspended with a cntrl-Z.
