Several issues:
(1) The number of distinct NaNs varies among platforms.  There are
     quiet and signaling NaNs, negative 0, the NaN that Windows VC++
     calls "Indeterminate," and so on.
(2) There is no standard-conforming way to create these values.
(3) There is no standard-conforming way to detect these values.
