Hello;

The change complies with both. I was even careful to mention IEEE 754 - 2008.

4.0 is the best time for doing this change.

When there is *somewhere* to add such note I will gladly do so.

Now ...

I am not spending my time on this, in fact I already unsubscribed from the -dev
list to rest from confrontations with Rob.

I think before reverting this (which *I* won't do):

- A qualified mathematitian will have to explain why -0^-0 should be
interpreted as 1 instead of NaN.

- *specific* examples of functionality broken by this change must be provided.
