+1, but right now i'm not sold on the behavior of not optimizing away NaN 
checks in no-NaN's mode.
At least that part should be reconciled now. It *might* be an improvement, but 
it caters to expectations
of one group while catering away from the documentation and existing 
expectations of other groups.
This shouldn't be decided in a review, it should be driven by an RFC.
