Yes but I think we really should mask ALL exceptions regardless of denorms. A
shader might easily do things causing exceptions (divide by zero or whatnot)
and there's certainly no signaled exceptions in 3d graphics. I think we've just
not seen issues because they are masked by default and no app unmasked them.
Might be worth adding a piglit test for that.
