exp(anything_but_0) dumps core

I have a program:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
main()
{
double y;
y=exp(1.0);
}
that compiles OK but dumps core when run (the message is 'Floating
exception'). Running 'strings' on the binary yields:
@(#)/usr/ccs/lib/libm.a/exp.o.sl 1.1 5.0-3 11/05/89 65417 AT&T-SF 0.0
I'm using the AT&T Standard C (i.e., "ANSI C") Development Environment
(SCDE) 5.0/3 05/25/90 on a 6386 running AT&T UNIX System V/386 R3.2 2.2.
'sum /usr/ccs/lib/libm.a' yields
17278 147 libm.a
The Hot Line says that they have an identical setup and that it works
perfectly on theirs. I'm baffled.
Help! Please....
Thanks,
Pete
