[Roland Haas]

Hello Erik,

Are you sure about this? I have (in src/util/Math.c):

--8<--
int CCTK_isnan(double x)
{
#ifdef HAVE_ISNAN
  return isnan(x);
#else
  return 0;                     /* default */
#endif
}
--8<--
and -ffinite-math-only turns isnan into a no-op that always returns
"true".

HAVE_ISNAN is set by the configure script. NaNChecker uses CCTK_isnan
yet it failed on machines using unbuntu.cfg which uses -ffast-math
(which includes -ffinite-math-only).

Yours,
Roland
