I think it is too late to get this into 4.0.  I can copy it over to the
4.0 branch after 4.0 is out so it will go into 4.0.1 but I don't think
this qualifies as a critical fix for 4.0.  It does look like a
regression from 3.4.2 in that 3.4.2 doesn't inline division by default
so 3.4.2 uses the routines which set the right exception flags.  But
there is a workaround by using the -mno-inline-float-divide.  You can
ask Mark Mitchell if you want to push getting it into 4.0 since he
controls what is and isn't going into 4.0.
