<p>Break on the specified IEEE floating point error conditions.  With no
arguments, report the exceptions currently trapped.  Disable the break
by setting the key to nil, e.g.
</p>
<p>&gt; (break-on-floaing-point-exceptions :division-by-zero t)
   (DIVISION-BY-ZERO)
</p>
<p>&gt; (break-on-floaing-point-exceptions)

<p>&gt; (break-on-floaing-point-exceptions :division-by-zero nil)
   NIL
</p>
<p>On some of the most common platforms, the offending instruction will be
disassembled, and the register arguments looked up in the saved context
and reported in as operands.  Within the error handler, addresses may be
disassembled, and other registers inspected, using the functions defined
in gcl_fpe.lsp.
