g77 -mieee no longer the same



Colleagues:

Just in case it is not generally known, the option of "-mieee", which
used to allow divide by zeros under Debian/Linux for the DEC-Alpha is
no longer effective.  For example compilation using

g77 -mieee -o testit testit.f

where testit.f is shown below produces a core dump at the exception
rather than a normal completion.  Please provide a workaround or a
solution.

Sincerely,
