As for getisax. One of limiting factors is ability to test and perform
regression tests. We don't have access to hardware running SPARC Solaris
(anymore) and for this reason something we can test elsewhere [i.e.
current exception-based procedure] is actually preferable.
Thanks for looking into the bug, Andy.
We like your proposed fix, especially the nice block of explanation and
workaround in the FAQ.
We appreciate it if you can integrate the fix.
Regards,
Misaki Miyashita
