In a recent discussion Maciej Rozycki reported that this case is impossible. Handle the impossible case by just returning instead of trying to handle it. This makes static analysis simpler as it means nothing needs to consider the impossible case after the return statement. As the code no longer has to deal with this case remove FPE_FIXME from the mips siginfo.h Cc: "Maciej W.
