12>0 cvalente@link Stats 54$ cat t.pl
sub t{
print 1/0;
}
13>0 cvalente@link Stats 54$ perl -c t.pl
Illegal division by zero at t.pl line 2.

perl -c stands for check syntax

gcc also has this. It gives a warning

gcc -c t.c
t.c: In function `t':
t.c:2: warning: division by zero

and it does even more:

24>0 cvalente@link Stats 54$ cat t.cpp
const int X = 1-1;
int t(int i){
        return i/X;
}
25>0 cvalente@link Stats 54$ g++ -c t.cpp
t.cpp: In function `int t(int)':
t.cpp:3: warning: division by zero in `i / 0'

These are not exhaustive tests, but they are good enough to catch many common 
errors.
