Hmm. It gets a Floating exception on Solaris 2.5 with gcc and cc, if
compiled without optimization, but runs just fine if compiled with -O2 or
-xO2, respectively. (Just in case someone collects these results:

uname -a:
SunOS machnix 5.5 Generic sun4u

gcc --version:
2.7.2

cc -V:
cc: SC3.0.1 24 Jan 1995
