On my system,

"yes -- '-nan' | head -116903 | sort -g > /dev/null" completes in under a 
second.                                                          

while

"yes -- '-nan' | head -116904 | sort -g > /dev/null" appears to hang.

The same behavior is observed for "+nan".

For "nan", the border is between 120150 and 120151.

An older version of sort, 8.5, appears to work fine.
