BigFraction.doubleValue() returns Double.NaN for large numerators or 
denominators
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MATH-744
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-744
             Project: Commons Math
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.2
            Reporter: Thundre
         Attachments: site.patch

The current implementation of doubleValue() divides numerator.doubleValue() / 
denominator.doubleValue().  BigInteger.doubleValue() fails for any number 
greater than Double.MAX_VALUE.  So if the user has 308-digit numerator or 
denominator, the resulting quotient fails, even in cases where the result would 
be well inside Double's range.

I have a patch to fix it, if I can figure out how to attach it here I will.
