 State-Changed-Why:
     A couple of issues:
     
     1) iso 14882 (c++) 26.5 says nothing about these macros
     2) iso 9998 (c) 7.12.3 Classification macros
     #include <math.h>
     int isnan(real-floating x);
     
     Note the differce: standards-specify one argument. 
     
     I suppose this doesn't really matter, and that v3 should not have these macros in its namespace.
     
     
     The macros usage is turned on by this define in math.h:
     
     /* ISO C99 defines some generic macros which work on any data type.  */
     #if __USE_ISOC99
     
     this is on by default for gnu/linux (see config/os/gnu-linux/bits/os_defines.h)
     
     You could turn off all the ISO C 9899 stuff for v3, but it's not going to be possible to just turn off these bits. (Thus, wchar_t bits and long long/long double bits go too.)
