So as far as you know, Python doesn't switch stuff like feenableexcept(FE_EXCEPT_ALL)? Does Python use the <signal.h> internally, or are all its FPEs detected by explicit checks beforehand? If writing a python module with SWIG, and the module uses Python callbacks, do I need to restore the signal handlers before running the callback, or python do that itself? (These might be questions better asked on the SWIG list I guess) Cheers JP -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
