Re: +-Inf and NaN

Greetings!

Does anyone care about anything other than 4 or 8 byte floats?  (BTW the
current definition of single-float in GCL is one of the two permissible
by the spec for the case of two supported formats.)

gcl:
>(list  most-positive-short-float  most-positive-single-float  most-positive-double-float  most-positive-long-float)

(3.4028235S38 1.7976931348623158E308 1.7976931348623158E308 1.7976931348623158E308)

sbcl:
* (list  most-positive-short-float  most-positive-single-float  most-positive-double-float  most-positive-long-float)
(3.4028235e38 3.4028235e38 1.7976931348623157d308 1.7976931348623157d308)

clisp:
