Reading the thread "Autoconf manual's coverage of signed integer

miscompilation of the remainder expression that causes INT_MIN % -1
to cause a SIGFPE on CPUs of the i386 family.  Are there plans to
fix this bug (which, to me, looks quite serious)?


Seems ultra-non-serious to me, hard to believe this case appears
in real code, despite surprising claim by Roberto.
