           Summary: Order of float declaration changes NaN throwing
                    behavior

import std.math;
void main()
{
   float foo;
   FloatingPointControl fpc;
   fpc.enableExceptions(FloatingPointControl.allExceptions);

   //~ float foo;
   auto x = foo / 0;
}

This won't throw unless you replace the first foo declaration with the second
one. This only happens with NaNs. If you initialize the float and do an invalid
operation then it throws:

import std.math;
void main()
{
   float foo = 0.0f;  // initialize it first
   FloatingPointControl fpc;
   fpc.enableExceptions(FloatingPointControl.allExceptions);

   auto x = foo / 0;  // throws, as it should
}

So this odd behavior only happens with NaNs.
