These all seem to stem from a common cause.  Are you able to get in 
with a debugger and see what the cause of the floating point exception 
is?

Newer compilers have started to skip producing common-sense results 
(e.g. not issuing corresponding instructions) when encountering 
"undefined behavior" according to modern C standards.  This can result 
in a change in behavior.

It would be useful to see if reducing the compilation optimization 
level makes the problem go away.
