My experience with the Sun 2 workstation is that it returns a value
which is printed via printf as "NAN" (not a number).  I was under
the impression this had something  to do with the IEEE standard
for floating point software.  They claim they conform.  My question
is whether or not they are consistent when using their Sky
hardware FP processor.
