Comment:

 The problem with this patch is that you need to find replacements for
 -pinf and pinf / pinf as well because I suspect the processor will have
 trouble with those as well.

 Also, I'm not sure all platforms are IEEE 754 and so I'm hesitant to
 enforce that bit pattern.

 Doesn't the Borland compiler have a way to turn off floating point
 exception trapping? Perhaps this is a better approach.
