A good idea to check for divide-by-0, generally, but sysRandomMax is a
defined constant, so this is not what is happening (I actually did check!).
I think I have traced the problem to the multiple section issue. Putting
the two problematic routines back into the main section solves the problem.
This is, however, of grave concern to us since this application has a lot
of mathematical manipulation (both floating point and integer) in too many
routines to get them all into the main section. We are using mathlib for
trig functions, but I don't think that is coming into play here.
Could there be further problems with the GCC floating point library? Does
it have restrictions on calls from multiple sections? Why is this not
happening every time we use a mathematical operation?
