The point here is that under Windows int4div seems to be generating
something other than a SIGFPE --- if it were actually generating that
particular signal then the existing SIGFPE catcher would catch it.
It's barely possible that int4div *is* generating a SIGFPE and there's
some other breakage preventing FloatExceptionHandler from catching it,
but that's a question that deserves a one-shot test, not permanent
memorialization in a regression test. Besides, if that's the situation
then testing that the handler catches kill(SIGFPE) proves exactly zero
about what the int4div problem is.
