And it seems that in all of the standards C89, C99 and C11 SIGFPE is listed as

> The macros defined are <.....>; and the following, which expand to positive integer constant expressions with type int and distinct values that are the signal numbers, each corresponding to the specified condition: <.....> SIGFPE.

So it seems that SIGFPE is required to be defined and has to be a
macro. (define as enum and then redefine as macro should be fine
though)
