check_math() won't report convergence errors. It only reports your computer
system's integer and floating point errors.

If you want to see what gauss2dfit does in the event of non-convergence, you
can read the source code (gauss2df.pro ?) in the library. You'll probably
need to read the required curvefit.pro as well.

Good hunting
