I think that libm.a has `matherr' (you need to link with -lm).  I don't 
know if it will be called for every fp exception, though, and you might 
need to set the x87 to a certain state for this to work (check out the 
`_control87' library function).  For more details, download the library 
sources (djlsr200.zip) and look into the src/libm directory.
