Tom,
The issue is with a select 'Infinity'::float4/'Infinity'::float4; which should
return NAN. without the cast I get the
overflow message from CheckFloat4Val with the cast I get NAN (as expected). How
about testing for isnan() inside
CheckFloat4Val (just for PARISC / Linux)?
I am trying to get this system working for the buildfarm as there are NO other
HP PARISC system on the farm.
Jim
