Description

According to C99, HUGE_VAL, HUGE_VALF, HUGE_VALL, INFINITY, and NAN need to be
constant expressions. We use some gcc __builtin() call when defining them, which
violates the standard.

Test case to reproduce it:
http://gitweb.dragonflybsd.org/~beket/pcca-tests.git/blob_plain/master:/math.h/t_const.c

NetBSD is affected as well. FreeBSD + Opensolaris not.

Cheers,
Stathis

Hi Stathis,

[dfly_i386] ~/temp> ./t_const
passed

antonioh@devel01:/home/antonioh/temp> ./t_const
passed

Seems it passes it now on both i386/x86_64. Can we close this one?

Cheers,
Antonio Huete
