Comment (by renficiaud):

 I am looking at this right now, and it is running fine on branch
 `origin/topic/11756-floatingpoint-exception-macros`. However, I am just
 thinking:

 - In case `fenv.h` is not found, does it mean that floating point
 exception is just not supported?
 - Does this mean the same as `FE_ALL_EXCEPT` not defined?

 I am just thinking of making this distinction together with the use of
 `BOOST_FPE_OFF`.

 I also would like to have a better coverage of this. On your platform,
 what happens when you divide by 0 with and without your patch applied?

 Thanks,
