All,

The IEEE modules and -ffpe-trap are to some extent orthogonal
features of gfortran.  Unfortunately, some users have the
expectation of using -ffpe-trap for debugging while also using only
some of the mechanisms provided by the IEEE modules.  For example,

% t.f90
    program test
       use, intrinsic :: ieee_arithmetic
       real :: inf
       inf = ieee_value(inf,  ieee_positive_inf)
    end program test
% gfc8 -o z -ffpe-trap=overflow t.f90 && ./z
Floating exception (core dumped)

The correct use of the module would be along the lines of

    program test
       use, intrinsic :: ieee_arithmetic
       real :: inf
       logical h
       call ieee_get_halting_mode(ieee_overflow, h)       ! store halting mode
       call ieee_set_halting_mode(ieee_overflow, .false.) ! no halting
       inf = ieee_value(inf, ieee_positive_inf)
       call ieee_set_halting_mode(ieee_overflow, h)       ! restore halting mode
    end program test

Technically (as I have done in the patch), the user should also
use 'ieee_support_halting(ieee_overflow)', but that's just a detail.

Now, IEEE_VALUE() is specifically included in the Fortran standard
to allow it to provide qNaN, sNaN, +inf, and -inf (among a few other
questionable constants).  The attached patch allows gfortran to
generate an executable that does not abort with SIGFPE.

OK Steve, thanks.
