I have had this problem with the SCO Xenix C compiler.
It is reproducable with the C compiler in FreeBSD 2.2.2
It will happen when a routine which returns a float is not
properly defined in another source file that uses that routine.
Adding "double getdouble();" prototype in float.c fixes the problem.
float.c
main()
{
int i;
double iD;
i=0;
lp: iD=getdouble();
i++;
printf("i=%d\n\r",i);
goto lp;
}
float1.c
double getdouble()
{
double iD;
iD=1;
return iD;
}
cc float.c float1.c -ofloat
This program will perform 7 loops before crashing with a FPE.
I hope this info helps.
