SIGFPE -> ArithmeticException ?

gcj doesn't seem to throw an ArithmeticException when a SIGFPE occurs
(x86, glibc). Instead, it dies and prints "Aborted".
Test code:
public class DivByZero
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
try
{
int a = 1000;
int b = 0;
int c = a/b;
}
catch (ArithmeticException x)
{
System.out.println("Good, we tried to divide by zero:");
System.out.println(x);
}
}
}
