With 3.2 floating point exceptions are ignored, with NaN's and Infinity's
propagated through floating point exceptions, presumably according to
IEEE rules.  I happen to prefer that all exceptions result in SIGFPE
being raised, so that a process stops right away and either aborts
or calls a signal()-specified error handler.

How can I achieve this?
