Does anyone know of any platform where integer division by zero
returns a number, or in other words, where it's not treated as an

but I think division by a constant zero should be a constraint
instead. 

 
I'm not interested enough to read this whole long thread, but ISTR
that 1.0/0.0 on a '287 returns #inf - infinity.
 
#inf is sticky. If it's on your input it tends to be on your outputs.

I understand that reading the whole thread take plenty of time.
But reading the subject line is easy.
The thread is very obviously about *integer* division.
