Scary. I get the same results with 3.10p1 on Win95; using -gnato doesn't
change anything.

Using 3.10 for DOS (same machine) gives a SIGFPE on the first one that gives a
NaN with the Win compiler.

3.10p for Linux (Slackware)/Pentium gives +/-inf for the +/-50.0E-33 examples.

Hopefully, Dewar will tell us this is fixed in 3.11p, coming soon to a
computer near you.
