<pre>Thanks for your quick reply.
IMHO a numerical algorithm/code which uses the results from undefined
mathematical operations should be considered wrong.
In effect, I believe that the default floating-point environment you refer to
should be FPE on. I realise that this would break a (probably large) number of
numerical libraries, and is thus not possible, however this should not be an
excuse to keep implementing libraries ignoring undefined operations.</pre>
