State-Changed-Why: 
Better late than never: close this PR.  In short, the problem the
submitter reported (FP exceptions unmasked by default) were fixed 5
years ago in src/sys/i386/include/npx.c, v1.18.  The tangential issues
raised in the audit trail have also been more or less addressed.

Now our oldest unresolved PR is from 1996!
