Hello,

I've got the following raster exported from GRASS using `r.out.gdal`:

As you can see the NoData is set to `nan`.  However, within the data it is
actually `-nan`:

gdallocationinfo ppp-2015.tif -wgs84 42.0776 30.9305
Report:
  Location: (266503P,70886L)
  Band 1:
    Value: -nan

I have tried to force the NoData to `-nan` as follows but with no joy:

gdal_translate -a_nodata '-nan' -of VRT ppp-2015.tif ppp-2015.vrt

gdalinfo ppp-2015.vrt

Even editing the VRT to contain `<NoDataValue>-nan</NoDataValue>` yields a
positive nan value in gdalinfo.

This looks like it might be a GDAL bug to me?  Is there a way I can specify
`-nan` as the NODATA value for this dataset without regenerating it (it's quite
large)?

Many thanks,

Homme
