Okay, I'll avoid getting into any language discussion by saying that I
really meant that NaN can be safely assigned to a Number reference
without a cast.

  var x:Number = NaN;

That may or may not mean that NaN is a Number.  Pick up a Colin Moock
book if you care to find out (I don't).  It can be said that NaN is to
Number as null is to Object (but I won't say it, because I already
did).
