our code. [I'm not sure about any interaction with the r6rs functions.]

Powers That Be, Doug and I would like `nan?' and `infinite?' to be in
`racket/math'.

I made an exact equivalent of Doug's `finite?', but called it
`regular-real?'. I use it in all kinds of function contracts (it returns
#f for non-reals). We would also like that one, with either name, in
`racket/math'.

How does 'finite?' differ from 'rational?'?

If we're making a wishlist, I'd really like '{positive,nonnegative}-{real,rational}?'.
