   0C9
          Fixed-point-divide exception. The reason code is 9.

... in agreement with the CEE3209S message text.  The generated
machine code is:

                           000009 |       *  I = 42 / I;
 000112  5800  D0A0        000009 |                 L        r0,I(,r13,160)
 000116  4160  002A        000009 |                 LA       r6,42
 00011A  8E60  0020        000009 |                 SRDA     r6,32
 00011E  1D60              000009 |                 DR       r6,r0
 000120  1807              000009 |                 LR       r0,r7
 000122  5000  D0A0        000009 |                 ST       r0,I(,r13,160)

... nary a FLOP in sight.  (Just an otiose LR.)  I'm not even going to
try IEEE.  (The source code is a couple plies back; be my guest.)
(You mean IEEE *isn't* the default!?  I guess I'll put it in my Makefile.)

/usr/include/signal.h says:
        ...
    /* Flags returned in the si_code member of a siginfo_t      */
        ...
      #define FPE_INTDIV     31  /* SIGFPE caused by an integer *
                                  *  divide by zero             */
      #define FPE_INTOVF     32  /* SIGFPE caused by an integer *
                                  *  overflow                   */

... It appears that SIGFPE (Floating point exception) is being used as
a catch-all for any arithmetic exception.  Except fixed-point overflow,
which is ignored, notwithstanding the definition of FPE_INTOVF.
