Subject: Gnu C++ odd event on divide by zero

If I remember correctly, Mr. Appleyard was one of the guys who has
objections to the default behavior of the coprocessor flags in DJGPP
(in particular with respect to exception trapping).  If so, and he
figured out how to get the flags reset with any of the several
solutions that were posted, and he has run any of his programs that
muck with the default behavior of the '87....

Possibly the reason it works under ladybug is that Long's debugger
resets the '87 to a known state.  Why the printf should make a
difference, I dunno, ask Long Doan.
