matherr was a problem back in the 1980s, but it's been obsolete for decades. Platforms that still provide it have it as an SVID option that is disabled by default, because it was clearly a mistake.I'm not sure this is so universally correct. E.g., what about Cygwin? Ken, can you tell? AFAIR, Cygwin uses fdlibm, which used to invoke matherr by default.
Sorry, but this discussion is over my head. Is there a C program I could run that would answer your question?
