I tried that too, but without any success.  I even tried 
__gnu_cxx::isnan.

It was suggested by one of the gcc people, but I could find no 
documentation about it.  The ISO C++ docs do not include isnan as a 
symbol provided by cmath within the std namespace.  I looked at the gcc 
source code and could see no reason why it should work.
