And to be clear, it doesn't only affect people who try to use ##Inf or ##NaN in their Clojurescript code. It affects all existing Clojurescript code, because running the Clojurescript compiler in a new version of Clojure causes all Clojurescript code to emit these ## characters directly into the javascript for its definition of the core hash function, which is nonsensical javascript. So all Clojurescript code is broken by running the new release.
