        !            11: allows one to catch traps resulting from
        !            12: floating point exceptions.
        !            13: Arg___ is a location within the program; floating exception traps
        !            14: are sent to that location.
        !            15: The normal effect of floating exception traps may be restored by giving
        !            16: an arg___ equal to 0.
