Different behaviour of RTEMS in QEMU/i386 and SPARC

[Constantine "chicky" Giotopoulos]

The original program is not using any RTEMS directives, it's just a bunch
of functions that execute floating point operations, that can be compiled
and run on any machine with a compiler. The only option needed when
compiling it is "-lm" because it utilizes the "math.h" library. Since its
execution is proceeding normally means that the CPU is able to handle the
operations. Even if the CPU couldn't handle the operation, it would have
presented somekind of "defect" of "flaw" message.

When I modified the program in order to execute "paranoia's" functions
through a single RTEMS task, at the point indicated the execution seems to
freeze, as if it encounters an infinite loop or something else that
prevents it from continuing. Something that is not the case when executing
the same code on the SPARC machine.
