It doesn't chech the reliability of floating points exceptions during
runtime. Only during build.

Anyway, I would consider HiPE as an experimental feature which may or
may not work. And even if it doesn't it isn't a serious bug at all.

Though probably it'd be a good idea to check fp exceptions and warn a
user if they aren't reliable.
