Can anyone reproduce/hunt down 114270? I can't reproduce it (I think it's probably Alpha specific), and I don't really have much of an idea where it could be. I haven't gotten any other reports of this, which makes me wonder if maybe it could be the reporter's system.
It's an Alpha thing. I started looking into this bug a few weeks ago, but got busy with other things. One thing I do know that needs to be done is adding "-mieee" to CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS on Alpha. It would probably be best to add this into the autoconf parts of the package rather than the rules script (which is how I was experimenting with it).
Just FYI, my autoconf macro which does this:
AC_CHECKING([whether -mieee is needed to avoid SIGFPE on divide by zero]) case $build/$CC in alpha*/gcc* ) build_gcc_alpha=yes AC_MSG_RESULT([yes, will be used for libpetscgraphics]) ;; * ) build_gcc_alpha=no AC_MSG_RESULT([not needed]) ;; esac AM_CONDITIONAL(GCC_ALPHA, test x$build_gcc_alpha != xno)
