Re: Apple gcc bug

This is not a bug. Per the ISO/IEC 9899:1999 C Standard (ยง6.5.5):

5 The result of the / operator is the quotient from the division of the first operand by the
second; the result of the % operator is the remainder. In both operations, if the value of
the second operand is zero, the behavior is undefined.

Division by zero results in undefined behavior and the compiler is free to do whatever it likes, including crashing the program, or setting the result to zero and continuing.
