|                  case T_DIVIDE|T_USER:
|                          ksi.ksi_code = FPE_FLTDIV;
|  
|  T_DIVIDE is the code delivered by trap 0 in amd64/amd64/vector.S,
|  which is the trap for integer division by zero.  I think changing that
|  and the analogous line in i386/i386/trap.c to use FPE_INTDIV should
|  fix the problem, but I haven't tested to confirm this.  FPE_FLTDIV is
|  delivered for floating-point division by zero separately, in
|  i386/isa/npx.c for i386 and in amd64/amd64/fpu.c for amd64.
|  
|  Nearby in both trap.c files is FPE_FLTOVF for integer overflow (traps
|  4 and 5), and, in i386/i386/trap.c, FPE_INTOVF for FPU exceptions
|  (trap #x10, in what seems to be an unusual case, when NNPX = 0).  This
|  code needs to exchange some INTs and FLTs, methinks.

I am on it.
