Try linking without -lm switch.  That will cause gcc to only scan the
standard libc.a which in v2.0 includes the code to all ANSI C math
functions compiled from the sources very close to what in v1.x was in
libm.a.  (In v2.0, libm.a was compiled from an entirely different
sources.)

If that doesn't help, you can either set the x87 to not generate FP 
exceptions (use the `_control87' library function) or install your own 
signal handler for those exceptions (with `signal' library function).
