>Description:
gcc does not compile the file tnan.C. There are problems with the
functions returning the representations of SNANs, QNANs and
Infinity. 

>How-To-Repeat:

source code tnan.C

#include <limits>
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
  cout << numeric_limits<float>::signaling_NaN() << endl;
  cout << numeric_limits<float>::quiet_NaN() << endl;
  cout << numeric_limits<float>::infinity() << endl;

  cout << numeric_limits<double>::signaling_NaN() << endl;
  cout << numeric_limits<double>::quiet_NaN() << endl;
  cout << numeric_limits<double>::infinity() << endl;

  cout << numeric_limits<long double>::signaling_NaN() << endl;
  cout << numeric_limits<long double>::quiet_NaN() << endl;
  cout << numeric_limits<long double>::infinity() << endl;

}
