JRMONROE says

"The GNAT 3.05 release of Ada 95, using the Adacomps program,  causes a
floating point exception when dividing a float by 0.0.  The exception
handler does not handle this error.  Any ideas on why or where a fix for
this bug is?  The prgram just aborts with a float exception."

It is not clear if this is a bug or not without more details. In particular,
you must say which version of GNAT you are using (there are lots of
different ports of 3.05, nine to the PC alone!, you must say what machine
you are using and what operating system).

Also, if you want the GNAT maintainers to look at the problem, it is useless
to post here. You must follow the directions in the documentation and
send a bug report to report@gnat.com.
