I was trying to stress the *beta* status. Maybe someone into NetBSD might be
interested in reporting this as a bug. At least it behaves different to all
other archs we have.

I hope the amd64 version of NetBSD 5.0.2 behaves similarly,
I can only try it as a VM guest...

NetBSD 5.0.2/x86_64 passed all both the main and the ECPG
"make check" tests. The BETA might have had a bug or
NetBSD/MIPS has some quirks I can't solve. Now what?

On a sidenote, this machine fails for the 8.4 STABLE tree, too,
in the main "make check"...

Is this buildfarm member for detecting bugs in the already
obsolete NetBSD 5.0 BETA, or what? The final 5.0 and
two bugfix releases are already out for a while. The owner
of that particular machine should upgrade.

Best regards,

I upgraded pika to NetBSD 5.0.2, and the problem is still there.
There are some tests (in "core") which tests for NaN and Infinity, which pass. So either those tests are insufficient, or the code does something different there.
Anything you want me to try ?

Thanks very much for that.

Here's the attached test code. Compile it with

gcc -Wall -o nantest nantest.c -lm

and run it. It tests NAN anf INFINITY values with isinf() and isnan().
The expected output is:

==================
$ ./nantest
computed NAN
1 0
computed INFINITY
0 1
==================

Instead of "computed", NetBSD/x86-64 prints "defined"
but the test results are the same as under Linux/x86-64.
