$ cat strtod_test.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <fenv.h>

int
main ()
{
   /* The following number comes from /usr/share/asymptote/ode.asy.  */
   const char *str = "121645100408832000.0";
   char *ptr;

   feenableexcept (FE_INVALID);
   strtod (str, &ptr);

   /* If there was an exception, the following will not get executed.  */
   printf ("No exception.\n");
}

$ gcc strtod_test.c

$ ./a
Floating point exception (core dumped)

[The above was on x86.  On x86_64 there's simply no output.]

I have no idea what's special about the number 121645100408832000.0, but 
the problem goes away if, for example, I replace the leading 1 by 2.
