Subject: Handle "NaN" and "Infinity" for input values.
X-Git-Tag: REL6_5~824
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c715788681121b78af3046d5c039c751625c8ad9;p=thirdparty%2Fpostgresql.git

Handle "NaN" and "Infinity" for input values.
I think NAN is already guaranteed to be there from Jan's work on NUMERIC,
 but perhaps HUGE_VAL needs some #ifndef's in the same place.
Should also include "-Infinity" as -HUGE_VAL sometime; not there yet.
