That generates a NaN that has the same general appearance as a
double-precision signalling NaN, but I'm unable to actually make it
*signal*. Unless this is supported by GCC and libquadmath, it still
looks to me that there are no signalling NaN's for __float128? To
repeat myself: do you have a working test case where signalling NaN's
actually do something useful? Otherwise it looks to me as though
has_signalling_NaN really should be false?
John.
