Looks sane to me, except "isinf errors" is an awfully narrow reading of
the problem.  Maybe just say "assorted errors"?  Also, do we know that
gcc 4.5 poses the issue?  I'm only aware of reports for 4.6 and 4.7.


It looked to me like this switch landed in gcc 4.5 because they were getting problems like this. See <http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-11/msg00105.html>


I guess we should backpatch it?
+1.  Back branches will see these same problems as soon as anybody
tries to compile them with latest-n-greatest gcc.

                        


Yeah. Will do.

cheers
