Well, depends how you look at it. The original bug report was about a backend crash, which is what happens if you don't catch the SIGFPE. Can we guarentee that we know every situation that might generate a SIGFPE? Besides, isn't this what you were referring to here: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2006-04/msg00091.php Otherwise we should just fix int4div. -- Martijn van Oosterhout <kleptog@svana.org> http://svana.org/kleptog/ > From each according to his ability.
