            Bug ID: 104389
           Summary: HUGE_VAL * 0.0 is no longer a NaN
           Product: gcc
           Version: 12.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c

Created attachment 52352
  --> https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D52352&action=3Dedit
Reproducer: huge_val_0_nan.c

The Python project uses "HUGE_VAL * 0" to get a Not-a-Number (NaN) double
value. Pseudo-code:

#define Py_NAN (Py_HUGE_VAL * 0.)
double my_nan(void)
{ return Py_NAN; }

Until Fedora gcc-12.0.1-0.4.fc36.x86_64
(03182470d2d2b272f06500184acab6b8ed78d8ad), it worked well.

With Fedora gcc-12.0.1-0.5.fc36.x86_64
(fb6057a2be99e071993fb54a5d338ab0febba8ff), my_nan() now returns zero (0.0).

Try attached huge_val_0_nan.c.

In Python, Py_NAN is defined as "#define Py_NAN (Py_HUGE_VAL * 0.)" at:

FYI diff of the Fedora package between -4 and -5, the most important part if
the Git commit which changed ;-)
