<H3><FONT COLOR="#CC3333">Description</FONT></H3>
On systems that support it, this routine causes floating point
overflow, divide-by-zero, and invalid-operand (e.g., a NaN) to
cause a message to be printed and the program to exit.
<P>
<H3><FONT COLOR="#CC3333">Caution</FONT></H3>
On certain machines, in particular the IBM rs6000, floating point
trapping is VERY slow!
