Errr no. You probably know better than me the details of exception
handling (I trust Linux and/or Xenomai exception handling for my
everyday usage), however, if your code contains an instruction which
uses FPU, you should enable FPU and let the program retry that
instruction, otherwise, if you skip this instruction, you will never
know its result.
