>Description:
A floating point exception will happen under special circumstances.

This problem hit me while trying out amp (it's some code from init_layer3() of layer3.c).

I don't see any bad code here, so it should really work. Just recompiled libm,
but that didn't help...
>How-To-Repeat:
main() {
	double d, t;
	
	d = tan( (double) 9 * M_PI / 12.0); /* this is about 1 */
	t = 1.0 / (1.0 + d); /* fp exception here */
}
