Bug description:  The constant NAN is reported as 0 on Windows build

Description:
------------
The constant NAN is reported as '0' on the Windows binary downloaded from
the snaps.php.net site. The function is correct on Linux.

A colleague built locally (on Windows) from source and got the correct
value for NAN (ie NAN). We stepped through this code (in
basic_functions.c): 

PHPAPI double php_get_nan(void)
{
#if HAVE_HUGE_VAL_NAN
        return HUGE_VAL + -HUGE_VAL;
#elif defined(__i386__) || defined(_X86_) || defined(ALPHA) ||
defined(_ALPHA) || defined(__alpha)
        double val = 0.0;
        ((php_uint32*)&val)[1] = PHP_DOUBLE_QUIET_NAN_HIGH;
        ((php_uint32*)&val)[0] = 0;
        return val;
#elif HAVE_ATOF_ACCEPTS_NAN
        return atof("NAN");
#else
        return 0.0/0.0;
#endif
}

and found that the local build goes through the first "if" section, that
is, HAVE_HUGE_VAL_NAN is true. We can't step through the Windows binary we
downloaded but guessing that it's not executing the same section. 

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
echo "NAN= ";
var_dump(NAN);
?>


Expected result:
----------------
NAN= float(NAN)

Actual result:
--------------
NAN= float(0)
