Hi,
I am having problems with some code, the identical code runs perfectly
on a Sparc with gcc while on FreeBSD 2.10R I get wrong results. Needless
to say I get no errors compiling.
The only error I get from FBSD is the following
/kernel: pid 1152 (lamp) exited with masked floating point exceptions 0x61
I know it's probably a long shot, but does anyone know what this
error mesage means?
