No, I wouldn't.  And double checking, it's the other way round :-(.  We
test the exception handling, not the error handling, so tests like
(libc/math/libm-test.inc) these

  TEST_f_f (cos, plus_infty, nan_value, INVALID_EXCEPTION);
  TEST_f_f (cos, minus_infty, nan_value, INVALID_EXCEPTION);

test that cos with input plus/minus infinity returns a NaN and raises
and invalid exception which is tested with fetestexcept.  And if you
have different results, please tell me,
