I can confirm this seems to be broken on Ubuntu 20.04. I believe it's related to the later version of libc changing the way finite math functions are presented in the math library (libm).
Ken is running Ubuntu 20.04 while Irv is running Linux Mint 19, which is based on Ubuntu 18.04. I've got a VM of each set up and you can see the differences here:
libc on Linux Mint 19 is version 2.27
greg@linuxmint-vbox:~$ apt show libc6 Package: libc6 Version: 2.27-3ubuntu1.2
libc on Ubuntu 20.04 is version 2.31
greg@ubuntu-vbox:~$ apt show libc6 Package: libc6 Version: 2.31-0ubuntu9.1
This thread on the libc-alpha mailing list seems to confirm the problem: https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2020-May/thread.html#113773
I don't really have a solution at the moment. You could just build your project on Ubuntu 18.04 and it should work on all future versions.
You could also build Euphoria from source on the Ubuntu 20.04 system and it should work, but obviously that has its own set of issues.
