It won't fail. The change will just be ignored. E.g.:

  some_maths_function();
  math_errhandling =3D MATH_ERRNO;


That doesn't change the permanent setting of math_errhandling, maintained in= errhndlr.o.  Indeed, the next call to any math function that uses one=20= of the functions in errhndlr.o will cause the contents of math_errhandling t= o be replaced by its original value. --part1_17.3ed6c7e8.2cdfc65f_boundary--
